Editorial Reviews:

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.


Product Description
This conversion lens adapter and hood set is required for mounting the wide converter and tele-converter to the camera.

5 out of 5 stars Nice addition   July 3, 2008
Nice addition for for my S3. I plan to get the telephoto lens in the future.


3 out of 5 stars Just misses the mark   June 29, 2008
This is a good idea but the unit needs some further development. If you use a filter with this unit (most will have a UV filter at least) you will get the corners darkened on telephoto pictures as the diameter of the unit is just a little to small. It takes 58mm threaded filters but 62mm probably would have worked just right. Also there's no cover available for the hood which still leaves your filters exposed to dust and damage. However, if you don't use filters, or if you are not at maximum zoom, then the unit works perfectly - and it's really required to protect your camera lens.

The conversion adapter and Hood is great and it gives the S5 a nice look and feel. The one thing is when you are using the lens adapter you can see a circle until you extend the zoom some, but even with that I have been able to get some nice effects with the pictures in the circle. So it has it's advantage too.

Received damaged product. Took the trouble to return the item and received new one in a few days.


5 out of 5 stars A must have option.   May 28, 2008
If you are moving up to having an excellent camera such as the S5 IS then you should have what is needed to protect your lens. A bit of advice for those unfamiliar with the camera and do not know how to install the adapter. You first must remove lens cap and portion of camera that the cap attaches to. To do this there is a button on the camera next to where it is marked 8.0 Mega Pixels to the left of the lens while looking at it. This will allow you to remove the part you need in order to connect the lens adapter. Another positive is that with a new 58mm lens cap you do not have to worry about the cap popping off because the zoom does not need to make contact with it. Happy Photo Shooting!
