Hej Ulf
Why would it not fit? Is it because the rear element of the 65-200/4 is
protruding?
I've always thought it was the 1.4X converter with it's protruding front
element that
(physically) had the least compatibility of the two Oly converters, and that
the 2X-A
would fit most Zuiko tele lenses (at least physically). Some rethinking on my
side is
obviously needed here. Thanks for the info.

P.S. I should of course have mentioned in my earlier post that Rostock is in
northern
Germany. :-(
