 A nice product with a small drawback August 15, 2006

I purchased one of these lens adapters instead of the Canon product because I already had several filters and hoods for the 58mm threads. It is a nice product. Sturdy black anodized aluminum as opposed to the Canon product, which is plastic. I can't detect any vignetting or flash shadows caused by the lens adapter, but adding a lens hood does create problems. I leave the adapter on the lens with a skylight filter just to protect the objective lens element, which is exposed. Looks good on the S-3 so I just leave it there. Only problem is--the tabs that lock into the bayonet mount around the S-3 lens are undersized. The adapter locks into place OK, but then it's a little loose and rattles in the mount. I put some tape around the tabs to take up the extra space until I can find a better solution. That said, I like the product.
 It works May 13, 2007

I bought this lens adapter for my Canon S2 IS and am quite happy with it. It works and my filters don't get stuck threaded onto it like they do on the more expensive metal Canon version which I bought first.
Works great on S5 IS December 6, 2007

The adapter I received doesn't look anything like the picture, but it works just fine on an S5 IS. No rattle, locks up tight, and works with the Canon 58 mm haze filter just fine. Plenty of room under the adapter to zoom the lens; no interferrence anywhere. Black color matches the camera body; looks like a factory part, but much more durable due to aluminum construction. Cameta Camera had it to me in a couple of days, not bad since it came to the Left Coast from back east.

I just received my Digital Concepts Lens Adapter, I have the Canon S5 IS. The lens cap that comes standard with this otherwise great camera was simply driving me crazy! Darn thing kept popping off constantly. This Lens Adapter, other than looking like an absolutely great part of the camera, also allows for a new/firmer Canon lens cap (with eyelet and string) to be put on the Apapter (58mm)... one that is totally secure ... and problem solved! I put a 58mm UV filter on the lens adapter, and we are in total business. FINALLY: That initial lens cap was designed to pop off if you powered up the lens to take pictures (so you wouldn't mess up the lens motor). Unfortunately, as you well know, it pops off if you breathe in its direction. The Lens Adapter extends just a bit past the extended lens, so there is no accidental "crash." If you are going wild over that initial Canon lens cap, BUY THIS PRODUCT!!
They got it right after two tries December 18, 2007

The first shipment of this adapter was silver, made for S2 IS. After two calls back to the company, they finally sent the black model, as originally ordered. This adapter fits nice and tight, and works great with the haze filter and 58 mm Canon lens cap. Highly recommend this for S5 users.
