Ros,

I believe you're talking about a tele-extender that attaches to the original lens on this camera. If so, I would not recommend using digital zoom at all. The digital zoom will degrade the resolution of your photos. I would also look out for a tunnel effect when at the widest angle when you have the tele-extender on. You can get some shadowing around the edges of your photos. Other than that, I would experiment with your lens and have fun. Good luck and happy shooting.

Hi Andrew

Thank you for that advice, your suggestion has helped greatly. I wondered if you could also advise me on what setting to put my camera on when using the tele-extender? Should I just leave it on auto or try something else?

Once again many thanks
regards Ros

Ros,

Auto should work just fine since your camera focuses through the lens. You can play with some of the manual settings just as you would normally though. The settings should not work any different with this lens on. It simply brings the subjects closer through its own set of lenses, then your camera reads them that way.

Hello Kay

The extender I have for my Finepix S7000 is a Razpr Adapter Tube for Fuji S20, S7000, S602 which I purchased through Ebay. This adaptor also can be used with high resolution filter lensesHope this helps
