I have a 7-element Soligor 2X that I've used for over 30 years and
haven't had any problems with it. Before that I had a 3-element Sigma and
it was lousy. It was converted into an extension tube after I got the
Soligor by removing the lens group.
I also have a Vivitar macro-focusing 2X. It's a bit on the exotic side,
and I get the same good results with it as I do with the Soligor.
