Canon S2IS Accessories

Posted by mazer (My Page) on

I have just gotten a Canon digital camera, an S2IS, I was wondering if anyone else out there has one and has used the accessories. I am planning on purchasing the telephoto lens and macro filters for this camera. I have been warned away from getting anything but Canon accessories - I like the small lightweight camera but I miss all the features of a larger SLR digital camera.

RE: Canon S2IS Accessories

I have a cannon S1IS which I use almost daily for all type of photo's I also use the telephoto (2X multiplier) on it and have faboulous results with it and it is a casio if I remember correctly. Several dollars cheaper than cannon.
The inherant problem with the S1 of poor focusing in low light is amplified with 2X but that stands to reason.

RE: Canon S2IS Accessories

I just recently purchased a Raynox 2x telephoto lens attachment for my Fuji S5100 digital camera and although I haven't had a lot of time with it yet, it seems great and it has great reviews. I've seen some great photo examples around the web. I plan on using it for bird closeups. I have taken a few so far that are pretty good. I just need practice.

I meant to say that I believe that lens will also adapt to the Canon S(x) IS cameras. I use an adapter ring for mine (62-55).
