    Question Which lenses for a Canon A80?

    Hi All,

    I've had this camera for about 6 months now and I really like it!!
    But I want to get more out of it now that I'm starting to learn how to take pictures and I was looking for some advice in choosing a wide-angle, tele and filters.

    My first question is should I get a 37mm adapter or a 52mm?

    What brands of lenses are good but not too expensive?

    Where is a good place to buy (online)?

    My badget is a couple of hundreds for everything ....

    Thank you for all the suggestions!
    best regards
    david

    Re: Which lenses for a Canon A80?

    I have a TC-DC52A Teleconverter Lens with LDC52D adapter for my old A80 which took excellent pics. It changed the whole camera from a generally run of the mill camera to what I thought was was a great and economical way to take pics without going high end.The zoom was just incredible. I bought them both new for about 150.00 . Don't have the camera anymore since I fell off my bass boat with it, but the teleconverter survived. I've scince upgraded to the PowerSot S1 IS, and ordered the teleconverter lens for this one too.
