Canon powershot G10 with 0.45x wide angle adapter

I recorded this video just to show people out there that it is possible to ad a wide angle lens without the help of canon.

I bought this setup on E-bay for 30 dollars and it is a 2 piece kit that i came up with. I didnt find any information on the net that confirms that his setup will work without the need of cropping the photos.

Its is a "canon g10 adapter tube" with a 58mm thread on it. The tube comes in 2 parts but you will only need 1. And that is the part that goes on the camera body itself. Note THE SECOND PART IS NOT NEEDED.

On top of that i added a 58mm 0.45x wide angle converter that i also got from e-bay. Just screw this one on the tube and you are done. One other thing to rember is that you can not zoom with this setup. Its for wideangle shots ONLY. So keep your zoomrange to equal 28mm and its all fine.

With the adapter lens comes a macro lens. The macro lens must stay on the .45x converter to get the whole thing to fit the 58mm tube.

Yes there will be a small ammount if black corners but for my purpose its just an extra plus ( most of the times )

The video is recorded with another canon G10 without any extras on it.

Hope this is helpful!

Over and out from sweden.

you can zoom but not all the way. i no longer have this camera so i cant answer all queations. i think the diameter of the thread is 67mm.

video should be called "Look guys, I bought a new toy, I will not show you pictures I made with the camera, just look how it looks like, I am so cool isn't it?"

[arvan87]

@kupaevIvideo The reason i did this vid was not to show off it was to show people that you can use adapters like this one on the G10. Since when the camera was new there was many people asking the same question.

Don´t be 12 years old plz.

What kind of wrist strap is that?

[arvan87]

@Shift4g DIY leather strap. Nothing fancy.

@kupaevIvideo wow you're a fucking douche, i dont care how old your comment is.

damn, I've the same wide converter for my G10 and it's ALWAYS blurry. Don't know what to do

[mrnicekevin]

So from what i see you need the filter adapter thing. And then you put a wide angle adapter for a dlsr on it ?

WILL YOU BE ABLE TO ZOOM FULLY IF YOU ATTACH THE 2ND PART?
