I frequently read reviews (when they are available) before purchasing larger items. So, let me help out those interested in the Canon LA-DC58H Conversion Lens and Adapter. I found it simple to install,easy to use and a lot of fun to use. Reviews written about how difficult it was to install obviously never looked at the camera's manuel. In less than a minute I had the Adapter attached, the Lens mounted and the necessary setting to the camera made -- oh, and I was taking photo's immediately.

Wish I had read all reviews before purchase. This does NOT work with the A650. See previous review about 'the white dot'. I just spent $113 to have this removed from my camera - they had to completely take the camera apart.
Rating: - Made of plastic
Dang it. I read a well written review of the Canon G9 (and the need to get a lensmate):

I went to amazon and ordered this 'lensmate' thinking it would be anodized aluminum. (This plastic version should cost [...] cents, not $[...].) Anyhow, I found the metal one here:

I think I'll try returning this thing... never tried to return anything through amazon before. I also ordered some UV and polarizing filters -- I hope they are glass and not plastic. :)
Rating: - Does the job
After reading all the reviews before buying, I bought anyway. So far so good but is very fragile. Filters fit perfectly and fits on camera as promised.
