The TC boosts the 180 to about 1.5:1 magnification.

These are cool! I just got this lens yesterday. I also thought the option to add the TC would be good. Had a play with it today and got some pics of a dragonfly and some flowers that I was happy with. It's a really sharp lens! Creepy but really like these close ups. 8)
