Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Nothing changes the way you see the world like High Definition, and no company does High Definition like Opteka. In the professional setting, Opteka's glass optics define High Definition. Change the way you view the world. Enjoy outstanding detail, enjoy enhanced clarity, enjoy Opteka. Since it fits right over your camera's existing lens system, a wide-angle 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).

4 out of 5 stars A great alternative to Canon's accessories   March 13, 2006
 13 out of 13 found this review helpful

The Opteka wide-angle lens is a great, low-cost alternative to Canon's similar wide-angle accessory (WC-DC52). A lower price tag, however, doesn't mean you get lower quality. The design, build, and construction of both the lens and the adapter are very good - both are made of metal, unlike the plastic adapter (LA-DC52C) that I've heard Canon wants to sell you as a separate accessory. The lens also comes with a small pouch that keeps it protected in transit AND a macro lens that improves the magnification of close-up shots. Despite the high-quality lens and adapter, I did have to perform a slight modification to it to get it to "snap" into place when attaching it to my Powershot A70. This is the only reason I didn't give the accessory five stars. All of the pictures that I have taken with the new lens thus far have come out great. If you take a lot of interior shots (without flash) or want a larger field of view when taking photos of landscapes, this is a great little addition to an already fantastic line of cameras.
