For Sale: A Raynox 0.66 Wide Angle Conversion Lens. Price is $110 paypalled and shipped anywhere in the lower 48. Below is some history, pics, and examples.
This item was purchased new in Jan 08, and has been used a handful of times on my Canon S3is and is in mint condition with no scratches or blemishes. It is a 52mm rear thread mount and a 72mm front thread. It comes with the original packaging and front lens cap. If anyone is shooting on a Canon S3/S5, it will convert the camera to a 24mm equivalent vs. the 36mm at it's standard widest, and I also have a Lensmate 52mm steel adapter which you will need, and can include for an additional $10. The reason I am selling is that I have upgraded to a Canon XSi, and my S3 will now serve as a backup, and have decided to part with this lens to put towards a wide angle for the XSi. Please PM me if interested.
