Camera help please.....

[Jonny]

As many of you know, I use a sony h1 and find it great to use with the 12x optical zoom.
Question is, I bought a 2x converter lense to go on it, and it won't focus on long range shots, which is what I bought it for. Does anyone have a recommended lense I could add onto it that would work on longer range shots or any other help. I would also like a close up lense as well for macro work as the camera isn't too good at close up.
Many thanks.........

Hi Jonny, You did'nt mention the lens you already have but I used to use a Fuji S9500 and bought a Raynox 2x teleconverter worked great but needed to be fully extended for best use because of vinetting. try the link below for their home page. From there you will be able to find out if they do a lens for you model camera.
