Using a Lens (Optional) / Lens Hood (Optional)

This lens with a 58 mm diameter makes macro
shooting easier. It can shoot subjects in the range
of 34 to 50 cm (1.1 to 1.6 ft.) from the lens tip.

The separately sold Wide Converter WC-DC58, Close-up Lens 500D (58 mm) and
Lens Hood LH-DC58 can be fitted on the lens thread and used to shoot images.

• Ensure that the wide converter and close-up lens are firmly screwed onto the lens

thread. Injury from glass shards can occur if the lenses become loose and fall off.

• Never aim the wide converter or close-up lens directly at the sun or bright lights. It

could lead to the loss of eyesight.

This 58 mm diameter magnifying conversion lens
is for taking wide angle shots. The lens augments
the focal distance of the camera body’s lens by a
factor of 0.8.

• An externally mounted flash may not automatically adjust its output when a wide

converter lens is mounted on the camera. You may have to set the camera to
manual mode and set the shutter speed and aperture to appropriate settings in
this case.

• Filters or lens hoods cannot be attached to the wide converter lens.
• When the built-in flash is used, a portion of the image may be blocked and appear

darker.

• Use the wide converter lens with the focal length set to the maximum wide angle

setting.
