Which lens for Canon S3 IS ?

[Shakensoul]

Need advice on purchasing a tele-converter lens for my Canon S3 IS. I am an amateur so might not understand the technical mumbo jumbo. :S

Would be buying it from USA, so which one should I go for and also advice on the accessories needed for it ?

Here's a no technical Mumbo Jumbo explanation... you cannot buy a teleconverter lens and connect it to your S3 directly, you also need to buy Lens Adapter. So you connect your adapter to the camera and the teleconverter lens/wide angle lens etc. then connects to the adapter.

Here's a couple of links from Amazon to help you out

Canon LAH-DC20 Lens Adapter and Hood Set for the S3 IS & S2 IS Digital Camera

Canon TC-DC58B Tele Converter Lens for S3 IS & S2 IS Digital Camera

^^Thanks.

Thats also what I was looking at. I would have to order the adapter and hood set along with the teleconverter lens.

Err might I ask... 460mm or so of reach not enough for you?

^^LOL . Be sure that you only mount that converter when needed cos those are light sapping. You'll effectively get one stop less of light compared to when u are shooting without it.
