Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon TC-DC58B Tele Converter Lens for S5 IS, S3 IS & S2 IS Digital Camera
Customer Review: Love the zoom
Summary: 5 Stars
We got this with the Canon LAH-DC20 adapter and hood.
Have to have the adpater.
We were at the beach and with just the camera zoom of 12x we could not see details on the pier that was way down the beach or much of a boat way out on the horizon. Add the zoom and we could see the people fishing off the pier and a person empting a bucket on the boat.
You have to take it off for close things or the lens gives you a nice circle around your subject, but hey it is a zoom lens for stuff you can not see with the camera's built in lens.
Sometimes at full zoom there is a little distortion at the edges of the picture. This has not been much of a problem for us.
Customer Review: IT IS A CANON

Like anything you buy you get what you pay for,I was thinking about buying another brand and I am glad I didn't,this lens works well and I can tell that the 1.5 does make a difference.the lens is clear and is multicoated,it does what I want it to,as with any other saying buy quality its what you get.It does have a barrel effect when in close mode but the lens is not made for that,in telephoto the barreling disappears,but it makes a neat effect on close images,almost like a round frame.it threaded on the adapter with no problem,its a keeper.Also included is a nice drawstring pouch and caps for both lens ends.Customer Review: Worth every penny....

I have this Tele Converter lens for about 6 months. What a boon to picture taking it is. Simple to use and well made. I am glad I decided on a brand name product.
I have shot pics of the moon that are awesome with my S2 and and this lens. If it can do that imagine the quality of closer range shots. I even captured Saturn last week when it was visible. (Obviously, Saturn is going to be small and without detail.) I am very satisfied with this purchase.
Customer Review: Excellent quality.

I purchased this for my S3 IS. You will get tunnelling if you don't use this with the zoom fully extended but that's really what its for. It brings those distant targets just that much closer. The optics are high quality giving you sharp pictures. I've used off brand optics before on film slr's and they just don't compare to Canon's quality. They are worth the extra cost. The price I paid with Amazon was a bargain compared to brick and mortar shops I checked.Customer Review: See further

Very good lens. I use this lens on my Canon S5 it get's the job done plus there is a setting in the camera that recongnizes the lens. Just another canon product doing it's thing. I highly recommend it you can definitely see a difference and since the S5 is known for having some noise in the pictures when using the digital zoom I just turn that off and shoot straight through the converter for flawless pictures.
