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). |
