Would you say its down to operator error or the Lens TC combo.
I won't argue with what has already been said, but you could always try and damp the vibrations by using mirror lock up if you have it, and a cable release if not, and placing a bean bag over the lens. I'm sure a brick wall would provide a good test target for experimentation.
