Canon LA-DC58K Conversion Lens Adapter for Canon G10 Digital Cameras

For the Canon PowerShot G10 Digital Camera
Customer Review: Canon LA-DC58K Conversion Lens Adapter for Canon G10 Digital Cameras
I recently got this with my G10 and confirm everything negative that everyone here says about it ,.. A MUCH better alternative are the products available thru they explain what works and what does not and what you need to achieve a given result,.. I have purchased replacement parts thru them and Im very pleased,.. the Canon part is simply sub-par dont waist your money. As far as Amazon goes they were GREAT as always speedy ontime delivery at a great price.
Customer Review: Very poor design and materials
For some reason Canon has forgotten that the G10 is a flagship product, and released this "accessory." While I can understand the need for two pieces to some degree, the workmanship, materials, and limitations it imposes upon the camera are all unacceptable. The plastic itself is flimsy and too flexible, and I suspect will become brittle in cold temperatures. The limitations imposed by this adapter are the worst part-full zoom range is not available, and severe vignetting occurs at wide angle. Third party products are available for a higher price that are made of metal, and offer a larger filter diameter to avoid vignetting and are longer to allow full zoom range. Let's hope this product is just an exception, rather than the rule when it comes to Canon's new accessories.

Regarded as one of the best diving destinations in the world, Papua New Guinea offers extraordinary opportunities for an underwater adventure. It will prove to be a wonderful setting for that long-yearned sabbatical that will induce you to let go of technology for awhile and bask in its natural wilderness. Here's a list of exciting new things you can discover in this tropical paradise unbeknownst to the industrial world and a run through of the recommended scuba gear and equipment you'll need in a PNG dive site.

Interacting with an excellent range of coral and fish species. In the waters of PNG, you will find pygmy seahorses, orcas and shark species that have been declared rare or exclusively thriving in the waters of this tropical island. And what do you know, it has around 4000 species in its list of marine biodiversity, so a PNG dive will truly be a great opportunity for scuba divers cum shutterbugs to capture wonderful shots of nature. In fact, PNG is coined as an 'underwater photographer's paradise'.

Diversified diving options. Resorts surrounding its coastal waters offer great diving services onboard liveaboards (or an over 30 feet dive boat) that have been constructed with living amenities, rebreathers, nitrox and other useful facilities. The place likely upholds to its title of 'land of the unexpected' being host to a wide variety of barrier reefs, diving passages, shark lagoons and over 40 sunken ships, including world war II wreckages. Moreover, PNG operates a recompression facility at its capital city of Port Moresby.

Nature at its finest. Urbanites will encounter a refreshing experience in this land of wonders, since most of the archipelago has been well preserved of its natural settings, particularly the fragile conditions of its reefs.

Now that you've had a glimpse of what's in store for you in a Papua New Guinea dive, let us make a rundown of the scuba gear and equipment you'll need for this diving adventure.

PNG is a tropical paradise, so expect to submerge in warm water conditions with temperatures ranging from 26 to 29--in degrees Celsius where diving depths could go beyond recreational levels. In line with the temperature profile of the dive spot, a 2mm shorty for your wetsuit will do. But if you intend to go on deep dives and spend quality time underwater to explore the reefs or the wreckage, better don a 3mm full suit. Don't forget to bring your snorkel, fins and dive mask.

Given its many attractions, it would be to your advantage to carry 2 diving cylinders just to make sure you have enough compressed air to sustain your underwater adventure. The cylinder tanks can be rented on the liveaboard but what is recommended is for the diver to use a diving regulator that provides utmost comfort and reliable performance.
