Hi guys,
Personally, I prefer camera with long zoom as I can take pictures from far away. Previous super zoom camera was Canon S2 IS and now I am using Olympus 550UZ.
I personally prefer Canon's ultra-fast Zoom as well as the way their firmware is programmed and their stereo sound recording, not to mention flip-LCD screens. However, it has been the fact that for 3 generations, S2-> S5, the zoom remains at 12X whereas the camera I am using has 18X Zoom as well as Wide Angle Lens. (28mm-504mm IIRC)
I am thinking of buying the tele-converters next time when the next generation of Sx IS series comes out to enhance the Zooming power. There is a few question:
-Canon has their own Tele Lens for S2 series onwards, but it is pretty huge. Are 3rd party ones as big also.
-Does 3rd party Teleconverter exist?
-Are 3rd Party Teleconverters using the same 52mm/58mm ring just like ur filters and palorizers??
Thanks.
