The camera supports use of the separately sold Wide Converter WC-
DC58N, Tele-converter TC-DC58N and Close-up lens 250D (58mm).
In order to attach these lenses, you also need to use the separately
sold Conversion Lens Adapter LA-DC58G.
Wide Converter WC-DC58N
Use this converter for taking wide-angle shots. The wide converter
changes the focal length of the camera body’s lens by a factor of 0.7x
(the thread diameter is 58 mm).
Tele-converter TC-DC58N
This lens is used for taking telephoto shots. The lens changes the focal
length of the camera body’s lens by a factor of 1.75x (the thread
diameter is 58 mm).
Using the Lenses (Sold Separately)
z When attaching the wide converter, tele-converter or close-
up lens be sure to screw it on securely. If they come loose,
they may fall from the lens adapter, posing risk of injury from
shattered glass.
z Never look into the sun or into strong light through the wide
converter, tele-converter or close-up lens as this can result
in blindness or impairment of vision.
z If you use the flash when shooting with these attachments,
the outer area of the recorded image (especially lower right
corner) will come out relatively dark.
z When using the tele-converter, please set the focal length to
the telephoto end. At other zoom settings, the image will
appear as if its corners have been cut off.
z When using the wide converter, please set the camera to the
wide angle end.
z If you use the viewfinder for shooting, a portion of the view
will be blocked by these attachments. Please use the LCD
monitor.
It is not possible to attach a lens hood or filter to the wide
converter or tele-converter.
