back on it, sorry guys.

I understand it is a good idea to have a w/a adapter and my question is: should I wait for the Canon models specifically designed for the HV20, or would I be better of purchasing something like a CO (supposedly better quality lens) with the necessary adapter ring (since there's no 43mm CO stuff) ?

TO confirm, it was made clear to me, that in the latter case I would want to make sure it's no more than 0.7x and the size should be larger than to avoid vignetting.

My usage is varied, but the purpose is mostly kids stuff, indoor and outdoor.

By the way, are additional lens (w/a, tele ...) overkill for this kind of camera ?


Thx.

I am wondering why you need more lens than it has. It already widescreen, so that would seem to take care of wide angle. I used this afternoon at a track meet and 10x was actually a little too much even at a little over 100 yards from the subject. Just wondering. Joe

I don't know myself and that is why I was sort of asking.

I have very little experience, but with my VX2K I definitely enjoyed having both a w/a and a tele. I just don't really have a clue about this camera. Have had it for a few days, but have not even seen anything out of it !
