Summary: Great wide angle lens
Comment: This lens is as sharp as the primary lens. It's only draw back is the need for a side flash.

Summary: Worthless!
Comment: This adapter vignettes badly at wide-angle settings on my A700, so much so
that the field of view for which there is no vignetting is essentially identical
to that without the adapter at the widest setting of the regular lens.
Thus absolutely nothing has been gained by using the adapter. Canon, normally a
responsible firm with many excellent products, is beneath contempt in marketing
this lens. I called Canon customer service and spoke with a sympathetic
representative who took the matter up with "someone else". The outcome was that
they admit that there "is very little increase" in the non-vignetted field of view
by using this adapter. She said she would put my comments on a company-internal
problem compilation called "customer voice". I can only hope it reaches someone
high enough to do some good!

Summary: Canon WCDC58N Wide Angle Converter Lens Adapter Review
Comment: The adapter is great. No issues, and the shipment was received in a very quick time-frame.

The lens blocks the flash on the Canon G6, but other than that, the pictures have turned out great! It was all that I was hoping for.

Summary: Great lens for the money
Comment: I thought twice before buying this lens. It wasn't designed specifically for my Canon A620, it required the purchase of an adapter ring, and it blocks the flash.

Having said that, the lens feels good on the camera (even with Canon's plastic adapter) and the pictures are what I was hoping for. I use it all the time. It's great for assembling panoramics, and doesn't suffer from any unexpected distortions (beyond the horizontal bending you get from any wide angle lens).

Highly recommended.
