Customer Reviews

A nice product with a small drawback4
I purchased one of these lens adapters instead of the Canon product because I already had several filters and hoods for the 58mm threads. It is a nice product. Sturdy black anodized aluminum as opposed to the Canon product, which is plastic. I can't detect any vignetting or flash shadows caused by the lens adapter, but adding a lens hood does create problems. I leave the adapter on the lens with a skylight filter just to protect the objective lens element, which is exposed. Looks good on the S-3 so I just leave it there. Only problem is--the tabs that lock into the bayonet mount around the S-3 lens are undersized. The adapter locks into place OK, but then it's a little loose and rattles in the mount. I put some tape around the tabs to take up the extra space until I can find a better solution. That said, I like the product.

Works great on S5 IS5
The adapter I received doesn't look anything like the picture, but it works just fine on an S5 IS. No rattle, locks up tight, and works with the Canon 58 mm haze filter just fine. Plenty of room under the adapter to zoom the lens; no interferrence anywhere. Black color matches the camera body; looks like a factory part, but much more durable due to aluminum construction. Cameta Camera had it to me in a couple of days, not bad since it came to the Left Coast from back east.

It works5
I bought this lens adapter for my Canon S2 IS and am quite happy with it. It works and my filters don't get stuck threaded onto it like they do on the more expensive metal Canon version which I bought first.
