If you are satisfied with any tele converter, any WA may satisfy you

(tele converters are generally poor, and some WA converters are

better than that...;-). The TRV900 is hard to fit with a WA converter

for really good results (sharp images to the corners wide-open at

wide end, and if you are lucky, also sharp through the rest of the

zoom range). The only converter that I have found that does this is

the Sony HG0737 (yes, "37" - I made a special "doughnut" 52->37mm

fairly thin step-down ring to adapt it). I have not tried the HG0752,

though - it may also work well. Most converters on this camera look

soft at the edges at the WA end of the zoom range, unfortunately...
