Add-ons for digicams?

(MG) wrote in message ...
Hi

I have recently got a Conon A75 and was attracted as it had the lens
ring for additional adapter/lenses. Was wondering though if there is a
Digiscoping attachment offered by any third party? And with the 52mm
adapter, can any other standard camera lenses be used in conjunction??

Thanks for any advice

ADVICE: Lose the Canon. Did you know that add on lens extenders
severely degrade image quality? Now imagine what one of those things
would do to an already ****ty camera? Buy yourself a Sigma SD10 and
you can use whatever lenses you want on there. Here is another thread
where I explain why Sigma is light years ahead of Canon:

Yeah, Sigma is "lightyears" ahead of a much more respected and traditional
camera manufacturer. That's why their products sell for so cheap, right?

By the way, Professor, I expect a University instructor to be able to
formulate sentences a tad better than you do. Of course, you're probably
indeed a Professor, as to pretend to be one is criminal fraud.

The person posting under the name of George or Georgette Preddy (and
other pseudonyms) has become tiresome.

What an asshole. Who would seriously care about what he says?

FYI, todays lens extenders, (i.e. 1.4x, 1.8x tele's) do not *severely*
degrade image quality. They work quite well.

Actually...its easy to be a professor...and to claim to be one may not be
fraud...have you cites to your claims? I know people get fired for claiming
to have a PhD when applying for a job...even if they have a PhD from a
diploma mill....but I know of no one being prosecuted for it....or for claim
to have one. Lying is not a crime...its the reasons for lying that gets them
into legal trouble.
We don't want to sink to the PREDIOT level in refuting him! So, in the
spirit of disclosure...the above is to the best of my recollections....I
don;t care enough to look it up!

Beginners....that is who....and they come to newsgroups for expert advise.
They need to be cautioned about PREDIOT's advise.

understood to have stated the following:

formulate sentences a tad better than you do. Of course, you're probably
indeed a Professor, as to pretend to be one is criminal fraud.

My ex-wife married one of the professors (a doctor) who taught a class
she was attending. I've had some discussions with him; he's *far* from
the brightest bulb in the box. Just goes to prove that the possession
of a PhD is not an indication of the possession of intelligence.

1) I never stated anywhere that I was a "Professor"
2) English is not my first language. Your insulting my English usage is low class.
