Ideal for photographers looking to enhance their lens capabilities, it requires the CLA-12 for compatibility with XZ-1 and XZ-2 models. ## Description The Olympus tele conversion lens increases the existing focal length by factor of 1.7 but without changing the aperture. The TCON-17X has been especially designed for the XZ-1 and the XZ-2 in this case the tele position increases to 190mm (equiv. to 35mm) with an amazingly large aperture of 2.5. Therefore it is possible to enjoy the high brightness even for far away motifs. Depending on the used camera model, a special conversion lens adapter is required; in case of the XZ-1 and XZ-2 it is the CLA-12.

It seems the Sony lens has a 49mm filter size, so you will need to put a 49-55 step-up ring between the two. My own lens has a 62mm filter size, so I used a step down 62-55, but it worked. **Q: Is it made in Japan or in China??** A: It is made in China **Q: Does this TCON 17X have filter threads. If so what's the filter size?** A: The TCON -17 X lens does not have filter threads. The adapter you need for attaching the lens to the camera does have filter threads for 55 mm filters. **Q: Has anyone found a good case to hold the Stylus 1 when this tcon-17x is attached (with the cla-13)?** A: Hi, Yes, indeed! I use a Lowepro Photo Traveler 150 backpack. In it I carry 2 Stylus 1's, one with the TCON-17X and adapter attached, and one with no attachments. This way I'm ready to shoot anywhere from 28mm out to 510mm. With this small and lightweight backpack you can configure the interior pretty much any way you want, and you can carry a bunch of other things too, including an extra battery, a small monopod etc. I actually have 2 backpacks. I keep other gear in the other one. The backpacks are practical, sturdy, and afford terrific protection. Good luck! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not sure this really is five stars, but it does exactly what it advertises *by V***S on June 22, 2014* This $199 Tele Converter fits the Olympus Stylus 1http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FZEJ3XG/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1But requires a $40 adapter "tube"http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GY4O9US/ref=oh_details_o00_s01_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1Bringing the full delivered price ( with Amazon Prime, of course) to $239. More than a third the price of the Stylus 1, selling today for $629. (Price has fallen from $699 to $649 to $629. New model on the way?The Stylus 1 has ( I actually discovered after buying the physical teleconverter) a digital "doubler." It seems to work a lot better and yield better results than the digital zoom in my earlier cameras. The onboard digizoom essentially yields the equivalent of a 600 mm zoom. The teleconverter with the camera's own lens boosts to 510 mm zoom equivalent. Couple that with the onboard "doubler," and you're at a mind boggling 1020 mm in a very small form factor for such zoom.As with so many other Amazon reviewers, I've not had this device long enough to have enough experience with what it can do. Best I can tell, its optical quality is first rate. It does not interfere with the camera's F 2.8 across the zoom range. And it does bring things really, really close.An interesting feature is that the camera's onboard lens fits inside the adapter tube. And unless it is zoomed far enough out, it will create a vignette effect of a dark circle since the lens is actually capturing the inside of the adapter tube at short extension. I sorta' like the vignette effect and have been playing with it.The adapter tube is also useful for attaching 55mm "accessories" onto the camera.I bought these items because I'm hoping (as I learn how to use its considerable complexity) to get several years from my new Stylus 1 --- and I was concerned the accessories might be discontinued when the camera is inevitably "upgraded" at a year or less from introduction.If you're buying a Stylus 1, try it out first, and for at least a couple of weeks. Then consider whether you need the adapter tube and Teleconverter. As between the two, I would recommend buying the adapter tube since you CAN screw into its 55mm threads more than this Zoom Converter.On the other hand, if you're a long lens photographer, this will definitely add much capability to the Stylus 1. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Adds zoom to my XZ-1 *by F***' on April 16, 2014* I tried this, with the required adapter, on my Olympus XZ-1, which is my favorite small point and shoot camera but doesn't pack a lot of zoom in its lens. This converter provides a significantly expanded zoom range. The XZ-1's f1.8 lens is great for low light shooting and I wanted to try a longer zoom with the wide aperture that the XZ-1 offers. I took several test photos with it which appeared clear, although I didn't do extensive pixel-peeping when reviewing them on the computer.I'm giving this five stars because it worked as I expected and didn't disappoint. That said, I ended up returning this converter and the associated adapter - but not for reasons that should reduce my rating of the product itself.First, this thing is just bigger than I expected. That was my bad, not any problem with the accuracy of the product listing or description. When I put the adapter and this converter onto my camera, the whole shebang felt bulky, compared to the camera alone.Second, comparing the size of the camera/adapter/converter setup, I might as well carry one of my other cameras with comparable zoom instead. For budgetary reasons, this converter and its adapter just didn't give me enough value for the expenditure. So I returned it.If your main camera is an XZ-1 or any of the other cameras that this converter works with, and you want the extra zoom, this could be a great purchase. I have alternatives and decided that I didn't need to add this to my collection of camera gear. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Help! *by A***R on June 20, 2020* Any way to add a protective or a filter lens on the TCON 17-X? I do not see any threads. All suggestions are welcomed. I am still waiting for the step up ring to arrive and will change my stars then. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.id/products/1844351-om-system-olympus-teleconverter-tcon-17x-black](https://www.desertcart.id/products/1844351-om-system-olympus-teleconverter-tcon-17x-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Indonesia* *Store origin: ID* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
