Conversion Lenses

WIDE ANGLE CONVERTER LENSES

Wide angle conversion lenses expand your frame so you get more in the shot – perfect for group shots and landscapes. 
They also help create unconventional perspectives on every-day subjects, giving photographs a strong sense of separation
between subject and background.

TELE CONVERTER LENSES

Tele converters bring distant subjects right up close, making them perfect for wildlife and sports photography. Use a tele converter
lens to take portraits from a discreet distance and capture natural, un-self-conscious expressions.

CLOSE-UP CONVERTER LENSES

Close-up converters allow you to fill your frame with tiny objects, and to emphasise your subject with the shallow depth of field
inherent with their use. Get right in close and capture the beauty of nature’s miniature world: the patterned wing of a butterfly, 
the morning dew collected on spider’s web, a flower petal’s brilliant burst of colour.

Flash Accessories 

While the built-in flash on your camera covers most day-to-day photography, some situations require more flexibility. 
With ability to fire in sync with your camera’s built in flash without being connected, the High Power Flash HF-DC1 is ideal for
Digital IXUS, A series and S series PowerShot camera owners. Seriously powered, the HF–DC1 adds several metres to your night
photography range. 
The ‘hot shoe’ mount atop the PowerShot Pro and G-series cameras gives their owners access to the same high-tech EX series
Speedlites available to the pro photographer, including the 580EX Speedlite and specialised macro flash units.
