Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon LA-DC58H Conversion Lens Adapter for Canon G7 & G9 Digital Cameras
Customer Review: CANON, HOW STUPID CAN YOU BE?
Summary: 1 Stars
I recently purchased this dinky overpriced piece of plastic for my G9.
But the build quality isn't the main problem here. The main problem is that it comes with no instructions whatsoever. Now, this is a pretty simple accessory and I'm a reasonably intelligent person, so I didn't think this would be much of a problem.
I was wrong. I removed the bayonet ring as all the reviews say you must do. I see a white dot on the DC58H, none on the camera. So I gently put the DC58H on with the white dot near the top and it appeared to snap into position. But it wasn't. It still rotated back and fourth about an inch. I went to take it off and try again, and found that it was IMPOSSBILY STUCK ON THE CAMERA. I tried turning back and fourth for nearly an hour. Wouldn't budge. Since it is cheap and plastic I tried squeezing it hoping that it would bend enough to pop off. Nope. Then finally, I got it off by forcing it with a hard turn clockwise, and bending the DC58H at the same time. I probably shouldn't have done this, and I'm lucky the camera wasn't damaged.
After this incident, I noticed that there is an alignment mark on the G9, but it isn't white, its just an indentation that can easily be mistaken for a spec of dust. The DC58H does attach properly when aligned, if you have a magnifying glass to find the mark.
Shame on Canon for selling an overpriced piece of junk, for a flawed design that allows it to go on wrong and get stuck, and most of all for being too cheap and stupid to include an instruction sheet that would only need to be the size of a post it and cost less than a cent.
Before you waste your money on this, google the lensmate, which is essntially a 3rd party metal version of this thing for only a few dollars more. Maybe it even comes with instructions and is designed well enough not to get stuck on your camera in the wrong position. I'll find out when I get mine.
