I'd say forget the t/con. If you're looking at these kind of lenses (non-digital) that go for not a lot of money, you'll be better off buying a lens that has the kind of range you're looking for without need for a t/con. There used to be plenty of lenses in the 70-210 range for film cameras, though I've never looked at Olympus stuff. A 2x t/con will lose you two stops of light and significantly degrade image quality, especially on an old zoom.
