Canon Powershot A85 lens

[nksheley]

Please help. I have a PowerShot A 85 and I bought the wide converter lens (WC-DC52) and the tele converter lens (TC-D52) but I can't figure out what settings to put the camera on to get good pictures. The documenation says to change the settings, ie when using the wide converter lens set the camera to wide angle end. It also says with the tele converter lens to set the camera to tele photo end. However, it doesn't actually tell you how or where to change these settings. Can anyone help?

Thank you,
Nicole

"Wide angle end" and "Tele-angle end" are zoom settings. If you're using the wide adapter, you'll also want the camera's lens zoomed wide since zooming to tele would be self-defeating. And vice versa.

Jon,

You mean it was as simple as extending the lens for the tele coverter and not extending the lens for the wide angle? Hmm, I thought that there was some special setting somewhere.

Thank you !

Yes. Unfortunately in photography clarity is expected only in images, not in instructions.
