Canon S5 Lenses

[tonio]

Hey Guys,

I currently have a Canon Powershot S5 and would like to get a Tele and a Wide Angle Lens. The tele lens for shots at Football matches to get a bit closer to the action on the other side of the field!

Has anyone bought additional lenses for their S5? Or does anyone have any recommendations for me as I have never purchased anything like this before?

Cheers

I don't understand you. Do you mean maybe the accessories for S5 IS?
Here are some supplementary accessories for lenses:
Tele-converter 1.5x lens (TC-DC58B)
Wide-converter 0.75x lens (WC-DC58A)
Lens Adapter/Hood Set (LAH-DC20)

Teles I have tried for a S3 and assumed to be usable on the S5:
Canon TC-DC52B 1.6x with 52mm threads..no front threads.
Nikon TC-E15ED 1.5x with 50mm threads..58mm front threads...my favorite
Olympus B300 1.7x with 55mm threads..no front threads.
Panasonic DMC-LT55 1.7x with 55mm threads..no front threads.
Sony VCL-HD1758 1.7x with 58mm threads..no front threads but front lens is deeply recessed as to create a short hood.
I currently own all the above except the Panasonic. All are used with a 52mm Lensmate adapter with rings when necessary.

Others:
Olympus TCON-17 1.7x with 55mm threads..no front threads. Supposely identical to the B300 with some unknown improvements.
Raynox DCR-1540Pro 1.54x 52mm threads..67mm front threads.
There are still others, these are the most common mentioned.

WA: I use to own a 52mm Raynox DCR-6600Pro .66x...now have a Panasonic DMC-LC55 .70x 55mm threads...not as wide, but gives a cleaner image.

Close-up lens: Nikon #3T +1.5 diopter and #4T (2) +2.9 diopter both 52mm threads front and rear.
