This device enabled me to continue using a number of filters from my 35mm camera setup with my digital setup; in effect saving me at least a couple of hundred dollars. The difference in filter size was very small, so I've had no problem with vignetting.

4.0 out of 5 stars Does what it should, August 22, 2007

There's not much to review about this product accept that it does just what it should. It allows you to use 55mm filters on a 58mm lens. I know how important that distinction is as I recently accidentally bought 2 or 3 rings that all stepped the wrong direction. In any case, it's worth spending the very little money this cost as opposed to buying all new filters.

Nice piece of work. It feels much better than the Canon LAH-DC20 Conversion Lens Adapter (LA-DC58E) and Hood (LH-DC40) Set for the S5 IS, S3 IS & S2 IS Digital Camera which feels flimsy
