Raynox DCR-6600, Pro 0.66x High Quality Wide-Angle Conversion Lens for Camcorders & Digital Still Cameras, 52mm Mounting Thread. Review

I'm a fan of landscape photography and this is the perfect accessory for my Canon PS S3IS. It is good because it has a front thread (72 mm) to put filters on. I often use this with a Linear Polarizer and it produces a slight vignetting that can be eliminated with a small push in the zoom rocker (from 1x to 1.1x) so it is not really something I regret. It converts my 36 mm Equivalent focal length into 24 mm, which broadens the field of view substantially. Barrel distortion with this converter is negligible when compared to the camera's own performance and to other Wide Angle Converters. I totally recommend it.

Canon LA-DC58H Conversion Lens Adapter for Canon G7 & G9 Digital Cameras Review

If you wish to use filters or add-on lenses for the Canon G7, you MUST have this accessory. No, this does not mean I really recommend it - it means you must have it. All the lenses and filters attach to this converter, and without it none of the optical accessories for the G7 can be used. Once you do get it, you have the option of buying a whole variety of filters that have a 58mm diameter - a fantastic option if you wish to use polarized or UV filters with your Canon G7. If you want to have the ability to quickly switch between lenses or filters, get more than one of these, as it is easier to attach and detach this adapter from the camera than it is to screw on and off the filters or lenses to this adapter.

Olympus MF-1 OM Lens Adapter Review

Olympus MF-1 OM Lens Adapter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I spent about a month trying to figure out which digital SLR I should buy for my first such camera. I have an Olympus OM 2N film camera from about 25 years ago and I have 3 prime lenses. Lenses were one of the things that was making my choice for a digital SLR difficult as good ones can be really expensive and I didn't want to have to spend a lot of money on buying several of them to cover a good range from wide to telephoto.
Once I discovered this converter, I decided I was going to stick with Olympus (E 520) and, with the purchase of this converter, I would have 3 prime lenses before I even bought one new lens. My old lenses are compact and built more solidly than the standard or mid-range lenses available now for Olympus. Even my old 135mm telephoto - which is now effectively a 270mm telephoto - is more compact than the 14-54mm lens, that I splurged and bought along with the Evolt 520, and it works great! With Olympus digital SLR's Four Thirds system, your old OM lenses will have a crop factor of 2, which means that your 28mm lens will act as a 56mm lens, your 50mm lens will act as a 100mm lens, your 135 will act as a 270 lens, etc. So, like me, you may be able to get away with buying a lens that covers the wide angle to normal range (like the kit 14-42 lens or the mid-range 14-54mm f/2.8-3.5 lens) and use your old lenses to cover the telephoto range.
The converter itself is solidly built and worked perfectly on all 3 of my lenses. You should be aware that when using the converter you cannot use autofocus but if you don't mind focusing manually and you have some decent lenses from Olympus OM cameras, this little gadget will give you great extra lenses to use with Olympus digital SLRs.

Bower Step-Up Adapter Ring 52mm Lens to 58mm Filter Size Review

Bower Step-Up Adapter Ring 52mm Lens to 58mm Filter Size
Average Reviews:

I did purchase the Bower ring but received from Adorama a generic, no-name one. Hence I am reviewing the one I got, which is not very well made (wobbles when mounted until you really tight it) and when cleaned with a cloth, it left black marks, so the finish is not great either. For the $4 paid it is not worth returning to (maybe) get the Bower one... So careful which vendor you purchase from, some seem to think it is fine to switch brands without telling you - then it is up to you to go through the trouble of replacing it.

Allows you to use larger size filters on lenses with a smaller diameter thread. The first number is the size that screws into the lense, the second number is the filter size.

Panasonic Digital Still Camera/lens Adapter Review

I purchased this adaptor through Amazon/Onecall. It screws on to the FZ18 barrel (55.8mm) and has a 55mm thread in front to attach auxilliary lenses.
I am using a 1.5x Olympus Teleconverter with a 55 to 52mm step down ring and the results are simply wonderful! The additional 1.5x reach - without having to use Digital Zoom or Cropping ensures much better results.
Please do note however that once you attach this adaptor, you will only be able to use the tele end of the zoom. If you zoom back to the wide end, the image will look like you are viewing it through a tube / tunnel.

Edit--- Since this review I've gotten another to find out there are off brand ones going around. True fotodiox adapters are much better than the off brands. They will have the name on the side and screw in before needing to be tightened by the Allen key. The no name off bard I have has already been striped by switching between SR and 4/3. I do not beleive this will be a problem with the proper ones. Just a heads up- touted as used may be off brand.
------------------------------------
Great product. I have the 40-150 4-5.6 and have been unhappy with the amount of unacceptable blur I get at the 5.6 mark. This product for less than $20 allows me to use a nearly impossible otherwise 170mm 1.7 (when you adapt a 85m f/1.7 Minolta MD on a 2x crop frame). A 200mm f/2.8 becomes a 400mm f/2.8 for less than $200, used. The ability to use super fast, super long Minolta lenses on the 4/3 system is a great advantage that makes up for the infamous lack of affordable 4/3 lenses.
For those who fine the lack of tactile feedback on digital disappointing because of their familiarity with 35mm film will find themselves right at home with an adapted MD/MC. An adapted lens works in manual mode by adjusting the shutter speed with the toggle wheel on the body and turning the aperture ring on the lens accordingly. I find the E-520 meters after a test shot is taken and you can stop up or down accordingly. I can't speak for other models.
Be warned that with some lenses the diaphragm pin is not entirely accounted for by the adapter so you will have to mount the adapter just slightly less than locked. With the tight fit and metal mount this has never been a problem for me. It is as snug as can be. It also take a minute to get used to mounting. It needs to be wiggled into place. But again the benefits far outweigh the trouble.
Overall I suggest this product to anyone who wants to make use of their old lenses, add lenses to their kit at bargain prices or fully utilize the advantages of the 2x crop frame to get some of the longest, fastest lenses possible. It's also worthy to note that tilt shift lenses (a glaring omission from the 4/3 system) can be mounted from many systems with the adapters that this company manufacturers. While Olympus currently makes about 24 high quality lenses, your options are open to a new world when you consider adapters. Being complacent with our limited choice is no longer a sacrifice we have to make with the 4/3 system. I believe the discerning photographer will be very happy utilizing and paying for Minolta manual focus lenses on their 4/3 body with this adapter.

I received this item just a couple of days after ordering, which is always nice to receive such quick service. When I got the package I was surprised as to how heavy it was. The adapter weighs 7 ounces and looks extremely good in terms of machining. Would consider this adapter to be of high quality in all respects. In addition it also has a tripod mount so the weight of the camera and lens combination is centered on the adapter and not the camera. This is really important when using it with a heavy Hasselblad lens on a camera that might have a plastic lens mount.
On these type of units you have to connect the lens to the adapter, and then attach the combination to the body. If you do it any other way you run the risk of losing tension on the lens and then it may be very difficult to remove the lens from the adapter.
I tried the adapter out on several different cameras and several different Hasselblad lenses. First was the Fuji Pro S2 with a Hasselblad 150mm lens. Pictures came out great with the camera in manual mode. You have to stop down the lens just before taking the pic, but on the Hasselblad lens this means just pushing down on the depth of field lever, very simple. I attached and tested the 50mm, 80mm and 250mm Hasselblad lenses and all were excellent.
I then tried the adapter on a film camera, the Nikon F3 and a D90 DSLR. Worked great on both.
Overall I am very happy with this unit.
