Larry, you continue to demonstrate thoughtfulness and enthusiasm for the Qsers with your research and frequent posts.
Originally posted by Docrwm Not much IMHO. Optically they are mediocre and they are HEAVY to boot. I'd be a bit afraid that they could damage the threads on a lens.
Given that they were made for the equivalent of a compact PnS, we shouldn't expect them to be suitable for the Hubble
Originally posted by panoguy I held my "wide angle adapter" in front of the DA35 Macro and it both made the view a bit wider and introduced all kinds of "optical specialness" (flare, fringing, CA, etc.). Gave up trying to find a 55mm step-down ring after that... nice paperweights, though!
I managed to get a Tele-Wide and Adapter set in a leather case. They came with a free Yashica Electro, so I have a use for the adapters.
