Digital camera reviews of Canon LA-DC58H Conversion Lens Adapter for Canon G7 & G9 Digital Cameras
Digital camera Review: A great accessory for your Canon G7 ot G9
Summary: 4 Stars
While this accessory is kind of expensive for what it is, (just a simple piece of plastic), it is necessary for use with the optional Canon converter lenses. As a stand alone accessory, it acts as a lens hood for the built-in G7/G9 lens, and also allows you to attach 58mm lens filters. I do recommend it, but I only gave it a rating of "4 stars" because it is overpriced.Digital camera Review: A must-have
Summary: 5 Stars
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.Digital camera Review: Adapter and a lens hood for Canon G7 or G9
Summary: 5 Stars
This adapter allows you to install accesory lenses, filters (58 mm), such as a polarizing filter, as well as serves as a lens hood, and helps protect lens from bumps or rain (at least to some extnet). It mounts quickly, after removing a ring protecting the bayonet mount on the camera.Digital camera Review: Aluminum Would Be Better
Summary: 3 Stars
For the money spent, seems a little on the cheap side. Spend the extra $5 bucks and get a Lensmate Aluminum Adapter.Digital camera Review: Be sure it is firmly attached
Summary: 4 Stars
Be sure that you can't remove the installed lens holder before installing the heavy telephoto converter lens. This adapter does not lock firmly in place with a resounding, reassuring click. You put it on, note that the release button is still depressed, work it around until the release is in the popped out locked position, double check that the adapter is locked firmly and only then entrust the heavy lens to it. Lens itself seems top quality.
