Ditto, Ian's recommendation. I've used a Vivitar macrofocusing 2x TC for a
few years and it's terrific.
I've also acquired an iS-series 49mm threaded multi-element CU lens and a
regular single-element Olympus CU lens for my mom. Both produce excellent
results. I can't tell the difference between photos taken with the
iS-series CU lens on a Zuiko 75-150/4 (which goes approx. 1:2 at 150mm), and
those taken with a Zuiko 50/3.5 macro.
Can't beat the size and convenience of that li'l 50/3.5 macro, tho'.
