Default G6 - blast from the past question...

wow... it's been a long while since i last posted in this forum. but even though i use a 30D mainly now.. but still my trusty G6 is still the BOMB!

anyhoo, i bought a Tele Converter TC-DC58N lense a while back and never seem to find the use for it. it's been sitting there in the box.

so i'm wondering if any of the new G series like G7 & G9 can use those with the proper adapter?

anyone know? thanks~

I bought a used TC-DC58N 1.75X zoom and use it with a lensmate adaptor. You can check out their test here:

I also have a couple of pics here (the moon and the car) taken with the lensmate and zoom: http://photography-on-the.net/forum/...d.php?t=415625
