This product screws into the T-ring and hooks to my Canon Rebel-XTI as expected. The product attaches to my telescope as expected. Unforunately, I could not focus as is. The telescope required adjusting the mirror position to perfect the focus. So I learned something. Connected to a Tasco Luminova telescope.

Designed for Canon-Powershot S2 - S3 - s5 digital cameras / Comes with adapter to mount included hood

Amazon.com Product Description

The Canon LA-HDC20 allows you to connect converter lenses to your Canon S2 IS digital camera for increased flexibility. It works with these separately sold Canon converter lenses:

Canon WC-DC58A Wide Converter Lens: Converts the focal length of the body lens by a factor of approximately 0.75 (35mm film equivalent at maximum wide angle: approximately 27mm) when attached.
Canon TC-DC58B Tele Converter Lens: Converts the focal length of the body lens by a factor of approximately 1.5 (35 mm film equivalent at maximum telephoto: approximately 648mm) when attached.
Canon 500D 58mm Close-Up Lens: Double-element accessory attaches to front of lens; changes closest focusing distance from infinity to 500mm (approximately 19.7 inches) from front of lens.

The LA-HDC20 includes a lens hood, which reduces that lens flare will mar your photos, and also helps to shield the lens from scratches and impacts.

Customer Reviews:

Must have, but read this first:.......2007-12-13

The standard lens cap for a Canon S5 falls off too easily. Sooner than later you will end up with a thumb print on the lens because the cap fell off at the wrong time, so you need this product to protect your lens. The unit appears well made and the black color matches the black Canon S5 perfectly. Attaching the adapter and hood gives the camera a professional look. It does a great job protecting the lens. However read these caveats:

If you thread a metallic lens to the plastic converter, due to unequal expansion rates of the materials, the hood and/or lens will become VERY difficult to remove.

First make sure to take the adapter off the camera to prevent camera damage. Next use moderate pressure to remove hood or lens. If that doesn't work, put the whole unit in the freezer for about 5 minutes. That will contract the threads sufficiently to remove the hood/lens easily.

When attaching the hood or adapter lens, use very light finger pressure, THEN back off 1/8 to 1/4 turn. The hood/lens should actually wobble a bit. This will help when it is time to remove them.

With the hood attached, at least on a Canon S5 with the 58mm adapter, the four corners of the picture will be clipped unless you use a slight amount of telephoto. This is very odd, but has been reported elsewhere.

This is a well made product with several quirks.

Must have.......2007-11-25

Great for attaching lens filters and protecting your lens. When i put on the hood with a uv lens you can see the corners in the picture but without the uv filter everything fits good. It would be nice if you could do both but not a big deal. Highly recomended. Wish i had this on a boat trip and water kept splashing my zoom lens.

Canon Lens Adapter LADC58E.......2007-11-22

Made of plastic so the threads are tricky when attaching my teleconverter lens. I bought a third party aluminum adapter after this one that is fantastic and does not have thread problems. As this is a Canon product I figured it would have been made much better. Pretty lousy for what it cost. I don't recommend it.

Great!!!!!.......2007-11-15

Great product. It screws right on and the filters can be purchased anwhere. I bought 3 filters already at Best Buy for pretty cheap. The filters make a difference on the quality of the pictures.You can not use the filters without the adapter.

Canon LAH-DC20.......2007-11-14

Perfect fit. Looks & works great. Absolutely no vignetting at the wide focal length. The only downside: You have to remember to take it off when using the flash.

Suitable for distance subjects.......2007-05-23

This lens is well worth the money if, like me, you bought the A710 IS in part for its 6x zoom, recording wildlife encounters is important to you, and you don't want to carry around an extra camera for such occasions.

The main shortcoming of this converter is that it increases the minimum focus distance (at camera's longest zoom) to a whopping 6 ft. At this distance, the field of view is about 7.6 inches wide. Without the converter, at longest zoom, you can get down to a view about 4.1 inches wide, at about 22 inches from the subject. So, regrettably this means that if you want to capture miscellaneous subjects in nature that may be approachable (butterflies, lizards, whatever), you can probably get a much better closeup without the converter. I suspect it will mostly sit in my bag just in case I see a large animal standing around (but not too far away), in which case it can really improve the shot (almost doubling the subject's size).

You will probably not use it unless the subject is really special and worth digging the converter out. But it is helpful that a large leatherette bag is included with this lens so you can leave the adapter attached to the lens and just pop the whole thing on and off.

In an effort to get closer to the subject, I have experimented with reducing the zoom while the converter is attached. This seems pretty useless. For example, at 1x the view was ca. 4 inches across, 2 inches from the subject. At around 2x, at closest focus, you get ca. 3.5 inches across at 2.5 inches away. At around 3-4x, the closest distance goes up to 6 ft.

Vignetting seems a minor issue because you will mostly use this converter when zoomed all the way out. However, I could imagine situations where you are mostly shooting distant elk or something and you want to take a quick landscape shot without removing the converter. FYI, slight vignetting starts to appear when you drop a little below the halfway zoom (maybe ca. 3x), but even at 1x (35 mm equiv.) where you have almost a completely circular vignette, you still have plenty of real estate left in your image so it is not a big deal if you know how to crop out the blackened edges; but it is easy enough to pop the whole thing off, so that is what you would do instead.

In the end, the best thing (for me anyway) would be a highly compact camera with a built-in 10 or 12x zoom with good optics. This doesn't exist yet, so I bought the next-best thing, the A710 IS with about half the zoom I'd like (but much more than the competition among good compact cameras). But once that commitment is made, it's definitely worth having the 1.75 teleconverter as well. I may even buy an extra adapter ($20) so I can quickly pop on/off either this or the closeup lens without having to screw things together.

Solid lens from Canon.......2007-01-29

The optical x6 zoom on the Canon A710 IS is already better than cameras in it s range (i.e. non SLR). However, the zoom takes the picture up to the natural size; the tele converter lens really does make a difference.

Firstly, if there are any negatives, they are very minor; the lens and adapter are black - would have been nice to have been silver to match with the camera. Erm, that's it!

The main quality of Canon is the lens, which they always do well. The clarity of this lens is very good, with very little fuzziness at the edge. It also connects simply the adapter and seems fairly solid when connected. The electronics features help in the overall control of adding the attachment. The tele lens does make a difference for just getting that bit closer to get what you want.

Inexpensive way to expand camera capabilities .......2007-01-04

This lens is a good way to extend the capabilities of a general purpose camera for an amature photographer. Overall all quality and color accuracy of the digital images is good. The large lens diameter blocks the view finder, forcing one to rely on LCD screen for framing. The camera sometimes gets confused during action shots taking longer than normal to auto focus - a minor inconvenience.

Lens requires an adapter - a seperate piece to keep track of.

Don't buy the bundle if you have a Canon A7XX camera!.......2006-12-29

I made the mistake of selecting the bundle without reading the requirements closely. The lens is for a variety of Canon cameras but the adapter only works with the A6XX series. My adapter arrived and it doesn't work with my camera. Kinda misleading and now I have to spend more to buy the correct adapter separately. Bummer.

Also, Captain Jack is correct about the vignetting. This lens is sort of like a magnifying class that sits in front of the built-in zoom lens. If you zoom wide angle, you see the horrible vignetting he mentioned. If you stay zoomed in, it works ok. Disappointing.

Have to disagree with Capt. Jack..........2006-06-18

I've owned a PowerShot G5 for better than three years now, and while I've never used any of the lens accessories, I couldn't be happier with it. I also have an EOS A2 and it met all of my needs for a film camera. I thought I would be giving up a lot when I got the G5 to go digital, but so far, I haven't been disappointed. In fact, I've been surprised with how good the G5 is; since I bought my G5 I haven't even once picked up my A2, let alone actually used it. The G5 does everything I need it to do. The one and only drawback of it compared to my A2 is that it took me a little while to get used to the longer latency between shots; with my A2 I got used to having lighting fast latency (the A2's built in powerwinder goes at 6 fps) so it was a bit of an adjustment, but I'm not a sports photographer, so I've learned to live with it.

My next camera will also be a Canon digital, but I'm going to make sure to get one that's got a good latency between shots that replicates the powerwind on my A2.

No more lost heads........2007-09-26

Excellent optic. About the widest angle you can get without Fish Eye Effect. Requires an additional adapter on most cameras.

It will NOT work with the flash units built into most cameras. In fact almost nothing that attaches to the front of the camera will work with the built in flash or the secondary focusing system. This is so large it might cause shadows with some Shoe mount flash units depending on the unit and settings.

You need to reprogram the Focus system on most cameras so that all focusing is done Thru The Lens. (TTL Focus.) For many models this means you have to dig in the camera settings and find the Accessory Lens item. Turn that on. For some reason Kodak didn't put this with the rest of the Focus controls in some cameras.

These limitations apply to most lenses, hoods, and filters, especially on cameras that need an adapter to mount them.

Keep the lens capped on both faces and in its bag whenever is it not in use. The front glass is only barely behind the rim and would be easily damaged.

Using large amounts of Zoom with this lens can produce some unexpected results. Depending on the camera, you may not be able to zoom in very much at all before odd things start to happen to the images. Make sure you play with it before doing anything important. Some effects may be interesting and useful.

Worth the cost.......2007-09-13

Great little lens for the price. I had to take some construction site shots with it for my company, and it performed as expected and the photos are great.

Excellent lens.......2007-09-09

Now I'm improve my close up photos. You can't use your built in flash when you use this wide angle (it's a normal situation). I have a DX6490 and I have a poweful package now. Please, don't forget the lens adapter.

Kodak never dissappoints.......2007-08-25

The adapter for Kodaks P712 telescopic and wide angle lenses is easy to use and has a nice sleek look, making the lens appear "one" with the camera. I highly reccomend both the camera and the lenses, they have made an incredible differance in my pictures. What I like best about these Kodak products is that they are very easy to use, the best point and shoot digital cameras out there as far as ease and quality.

Kodak Wide Angle Lens.......2007-08-05

The lens looks like it is nicely made. It is a bit heavy, and since you have to attach it to the camera with the Kodak lens adapter, it makes the camera front heavy. The lens is only .7x, but it does add noticable width to your wide angle pictures.

Works Just as it Should.......2007-11-22

What can you say about this adaptor? It's a circular hunk of plastic that allows you to add filters to your point-and-shoot camera. Since most shots in daylight benefit from a polarizer, this gives you the option of using one. It seems sturdy enough, installs easily and accepts any 58mm filter. As mentioned in other reviews, it will interfere somewhat with your flash, but you usually won't need a filter when you're using flash. All-in-all, a useful accessory for your A710IS camera.

Canon La-DC58G.......2007-07-19

This adapter is on the way of the camera's flash, so, this adapter is useless to me.

Handy.......2007-05-23

I have a Canon A710IS. I bought this adaptor to use with the 1.75x teleconverter and the 250D closeup lens. After I received it I was happy to realize that I have some 58 mm filters lying around and these can be used on this adapter (without vignetting). So this adapter can really open up some new possibilities. (Note: the closeup lens also has a thread to mount filters, but the teleconverter does not.)

A nice feature is that it is very easy to pop the adapter on/off the camera ("quick release"). Unfortunately, no case is provided with this adapter. My suggestion/idea is to buy one adapter per converter lens and keep it threaded permanently to that lens. This would be the most convenient way to use it in the field. The bag that comes with the teleconverter is big enough for this, but for the closeup lens, only a small filter box is provided so you'll need to buy a larger container if the adapter is kept threaded onto it.

The main disadvantage of this adapter is that it wil cause shadowing in flash close-ups (see my review of the 250D).

Does its Job.......2007-03-20

Allows me to use the couple hundred bucks worth of filters I bought for my S3 on my 710IS as well. Won't be used a lot as the camera is primarily for scuba diving in the the Canon UW housing

Customer Reviews:

You would think that an adapter from the manufacturer would always work, but this one only works in the telephoto range. At wide angles, the tube appears in the frame. Maybe it's only intended to be used with telephoto attachments, but it definitely falls short for filters.

It's fine, but be aware of its limitations.......2007-08-23

I got this adapter because I wanted to combine a TCON-17 teleconverter (1.7X optical multiplier) with my new Olympus SP-550 digital camera with its monster 18X optical zoom. This gave me over 30X optical zoom. This adapter tube is the only Olympus sanctioned tool to combine the camera with the teleconverter. However, you need to keep this in mind: 1. even though the SP-550 camera has image stabilization, if you are taking pictures in less than bright light, you probably need to use a tripod (or at least be braced very solidly) to take non-blurry pictures. 2. The TCON-17 costs about $100. You can't expect the sharpness of image to match that of a DSLR with a good zoom lens. However, I was able to take a decent shot of my parents standing on their deck waving from over 1 1/2 miles away. This CLA-10 tube is designed for teleconverters, not wide angle converters. There is a 3rd party lens adapter with extends and retracts made by a 3rd party company. It costs a little more but allows for both teleconverters and wide angle converters.

Adapter for the Olympus SP-550 UZ.......2007-07-27

To use the telephoto conversion lens on the Olumpus SP-550 UZ, one must have the correct adapter with which to connect the lens to the camera. The camera was so new, I had to wait several weeks before the adapter became available. I had been checking the Olympus Online Store, but decided to take a chance to see if anyone might possibly have it. I was surprised to see that Amazon did, even before Olympus, itself. To use the lens, one must have the adapter. And yes, it does the job.

Not Sure what Its Good for........2007-05-13

Bought this for the Olympus sp-550UZ, which I purchased before the reviews came out... big MISTAKE!!!
My experience confirms the lousy reviews... and what this tube could add to this camera???
My experience with this camera is: The photos are unsharp/soft and I can't locate a lens hood or filters to protect the lens.

I would wait for the Panasonic DMC-FZ18, to come out in October 2007, and wait for the reviews.

Works as advertised.......2007-05-03

I bought this so I could attach the Olympus 1.7 teleconverter to my SP 550 UZ camera. It works fine for that, and the teleconverter also works well, giving me 27X optical zoom. This setup only works when the camera is at nearly full zoom, but that's the only time you would use it anyway. You can also use this adapter tube to attach 55mm filters to your camera, but, again, it only works when the camera is at nearly full zoom.
