Digital camera reviews of Canon PowerShot S5 IS, S3 IS & S2 IS Professional HD² Digital Accessory Kit
Digital camera Review: ....not great, but not terrible either.
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this set to go with my new S3 IS. I have not yet had a chance to really use the lenses, or filters.
But in playing with the lenses, they do seem to work. The telephoto did add range to my zoom. Albite with a lot of purple fringing, but I was working with some very hard lighting conditions, and no tripod.
The wide angle does just that, but with a little fish eye distortion when indoors.
The tripods in this kit are pretty good, strong but light. And have all the adjustments I can think of. As well, the travel tripod has a detachable head, which is really nice!
I have not yet used the filters, so no review there.
The camera bag is great! It is a "Samsonte" and holds everything in this kit, but the travel tripod. As well as my Canon S3 IS, an extra lens adapter plus hood. My old Canon A95. Extra memory chips and three sets of batteries!
The screen protector works great and I have enough sheets left over for about 4 to 6 more cameras.
The lens cleaning kit works well.
And finely one last note; do not screw the metal lens(from this kit)into the plastic Canon lens adaptor. I made that mistake and had to put the whole bit in the fridge till the metal shrunk enough to get the threads apart!
In the end I see that had I waited but a month, I could have got my camera, plus all the things in this kit for about $100 cheaper than I paid for the two apart. But if you need a few lens to learn on, a tripod to play with and need a good camera bag. This is a good deal.
But I have learned, lenses are something that you get what you pay for. So if you are more of a photog than a very new amateur; buy the more expensive lenses, tripod and filters alone.
Summary of Canon PowerShot S5 IS, S3 IS & S2 IS Professional HD² Digital Accessory Kit
Since it fits right over your camera's existing lens system a wide-angle and telephoto converter affects the full zoom range of your camera's lens. A wide-angle converter increases your angle of view - scenes include more of the landscape groups include more people and interiors show more of the room. A .45x wide-angle converter DOUBLES your angle of view allowing you to get twice as much in the picture (AND your telephoto setting also becomes wider; not zooming in as close). A 2.2x converter will double your camera's maximum focal length bringing things twice as close. An Opteka conversion lens can actually improve the image that your digital camera receives and it's about the only accessory that can. By eliminating flare and ghosting the ugly cousins of reflection and refraction before they get to your camera's original lens system your camera gets a much cleaner image to digitize. Plus an Opteka converter allows you to use a more optimal part of your original lens system resulting in more crisp imagery. Enjoy all of the benefits of the Opteka HD² .45x Wide Angle & 2.2x Telephoto Professional Lenses plus you get the Following Brand New Items: Opteka High Definition² Pro Filter Kit (UV Polarizing and fluorescent) a Lens/Filter Adapter for your camera Opteka Tabletop Tripod 5 Piece Camera & Lens Cleaning Kit 53" Deluxe Professional Video/Camera Tripod and a Deluxe Carry-All Camera Case.
