4 out of 5 stars Lens adapter   December 6, 2007
Excellent product with fast delivery. Arrived in perfect condition. Unfortunately the length of the adapter casts a shadow on the subject when the flash occurs. To avoid the shadow, provide enough light to prevent the flash or use fill and key lighting to soften the flash shadow or disable the flash and take your chances.


1 out of 5 stars not the right converter, be very careful   July 6, 2007
 0 out of 3 found this review helpful

I bought this converter as it was the one amazon navigated to, and after reading all the specs on the site, I thought I got the right one. If you have the Canon Powershot A570 IS - you need the LA-DC52G! Don't buy this converter unless you're sure it's right for your camera (i.e. go to Canon's website or your user manual to make sure). Don't trust amazon, save yourself the pain and hassel or returns and reordering.


2 out of 5 stars Not what I'd hoped   June 27, 2007

When I bought this lens for my camera I was hoping it would let me take closer pictures. It doesn't. I may as well not even have it on the camera. Money wasted.


4 out of 5 stars One small fault   February 7, 2007

The adapter worked just fine, but one small fault is that it blocks the flash. It was just something I failed to take into account.


4 out of 5 stars Have 3 of them   January 12, 2006
 4 out of 6 found this review helpful

I'm kind of a gadget nut I guess, so I have all the stuff to go along with my Canon A95 camera, including the 0.7x and 1.75x conversion lenses by Canon, and the .45x and 3.2x conversion lenses from Opteka.

With the 2 Opteka lenses (bought together) I got only one bundled aluminum adaptor by yet another company (and not the one shown on Opteka's page). Although I like aluminum because it matches the camera, it does not mate to the camera very well, and has some rotational slop and general wobbliness.

The Canon adaptor is made from that hard type of plastic commonly found on 35mm SLR lenses, so it is pretty sturdy. Further, when it clicks in place on the camera, there is no movement at all - very secure.

So...plastic that works, or nice aluminum which is questionable?

Well, I'm going to use the aluminum one strictly to hold filters, and I bought 2 more Canon ones (that makes 3) for the lenses. I plan to leave them attached to 2 lenses because I hate screwing the lens on and off.
