Here is what people are saying about the Digital Concepts Lens Adapter for Canon Powershot S2IS, S3IS
"A Great Lens Adapter" | 2009-08-20 |

A friend lost one of my aftermarket Canon Powershot S3 Lens Adapters at a party and I needed to replace it. (Avoid the actual Canon adapters - overpriced and plastic.)
This one is by "Opteka" and is very solid, tight and although stamped with a S5 marking, it fits the S3 superbly....and I prefer it over my old "Lensfilter" one, which rattled a bit.
[...]
I highly recommend this item for S3/S5 users...and the price is great.

"Well made, 'non plastic', and a perfect fit." | 2009-08-11 |

This is a well made aluminum adapter with a matte black finish that fit right on to my Canon S3. Installation takes a few seconds.
I leave this adapter installed all the time without using a filter and it keeps my lens from getting those stray finger prints. I am going to order a couple more for use with different filters and just switch the adapters and filter together, instead of threading the filters on and off. |

| This LENS ADAPTER TUBE (used it on a S5) is a perfect fit than the non-canon adapter tube that i have, had to shim fit with masking tape. |

"Lens cap " | 2009-02-09 |

| This item was purchased to help protect my camera lens. The S2IS Cannon comes with a lens cap that will not stay on the camera and comes off all the time. By purchasing the adapter that secures to the camera properly I can now put on filters and a lens cap that protects the camera lens and allows me to put on the lens caps that will stay in place. |

| I purchased 2 of theses adapters for my Canon S5IS so I could leave my 1.5x lens and my wide angle lens always on so its faster to change.They came in black not silver which is good because it matches the camera better.They fit real snug which is also a good thing.All metal construction so in my book they are well worth the money spent. |

For my birthday, I purchased a Canon S5 IS. I am very much an amateur with a love of photography, and after several very happy years spent taking photos with my trusty little Canon PowerShot A60 (another birthday gift!) I was beginning to grow a little frustrated with the limitations of that camera, though it served me extremely well and was a faithful companion for all the years I used it. I was ready to move up into the next level of camera, and after much research I chose the S5. It was no contest, really - the S5 is an incredible camera.
Since the S5 is in a totally different realm than the A60, I started again from scratch and the first thing I was concerned about was the fact that the lens had no protection. I was positive that due to the combination of my inexpertise and rather accident-prone nature I would end up accidentally jamming the barrel and/or scratching the lens and ruining my beautiful new camera, which I treat as though it's made out of the finest spun glass (because if I didnt, I'd break it in five minutes).
Through reading around and reviews, including the helpful folks who review cameras and camera equipment here at Amazon.com, I discovered what lens adapters were for and that many, many people use a lens adapter in combination with a UV filter to protect their lenses. I was delighted to have found such a great solution so quickly and purchased this adapter and a UV lens to go with it on the same day I purchased the S5.
This adapter fits perfectly on my S5 and is very sturdy. It has the barest bit of a wiggle, which has caused no problems whatsoever, and does not jiggle loose, rattle around or come off or offer any kind of difficulty at all. It's lightweight aluminum, not plastic, and looks as though it came with the camera itself.
The UV filter and new lens cap I purchased fit onto the adapter with no trouble. The adapter extends to just beyond the range of the lens barrel and the adapter and UV filter completely protect my lens and barrel so that I dont have to worry about accidentally switching it on while it's in my camera bag and burning out the motor. I never have to worry about the lens cap popping off (the new cap I bought snaps on very nicely and securely). This little adapter, along with the UV filter, gives me peace of mind that I would have been willing to pay a lot more for, for less than $20 total.
I still have an enormous amount of learning to do but this adapter makes it much easier to use my new camera without having to worry about damaging the most sensitive parts of it. I am probably going to go ahead and buy another one of these, as well as another UV lens, just to have amongst my equipment on the off chance I need it someday. Well worth the price, and it tricks out my camera enough so that it makes me look like I actually know what I'm doing! :D |
