User Reviews about Opteka 58mm Lens Adapter (Two-part) for Canon Powershot G10 & G11 Digital Camera
I had no Idea how easy it would be to use this adapter. ONce the Lens is mounted on the adapter you just twist and click to mount it on the camera. -- Opteka Lens adapter twists and clicks on and off
Bought this for a friend who had a G10. She loved it!! Was a nice addition for her camera. -- great Product!
As mentioned above, the picture is misleading. It is a straight, two-piece adapter, made from lightweight aluminum, not plastic like the Canon ones. Also, for this price, it does the same thing as the much more expensive Canon model and is probably a better option. The problem is that instead of making a wider, tapered cone, they made this in two pieces. When you use it with little zoom (up to about 1/3 to 1/2 of the zoom range), you just put your filter or lens on the end of the first attachment. If you want to use more zoom, you need to attach the first and second attachments, allowing the camera to zoom fully through the barrel of this piece without contacting the filter. It works well, but it is just a bit of a pain having to switch on and off between the one or two attachment modes if you frequently go back and forth between full wide angle and highly zoomed pictures, since you'll have to keep unscrewing your lens/filter and moving it from one to the other. I believe Canon's adapter is the same way, so you may as well buy this one. I have no problems at all with any shaking or loose attachment to my G10. -- Better than Canon version, not perfect
I noticed they don't fit tight and they are loose once you put it on. -- works ok, but loose fitting
