I did initially ask for 180 (for shipment cost from Japan and some extra income for me and my Japanese friend) but everyone would like to see the sample pics first. So here is partly why I posted the samples. Seems ppl here are more interested in getting it for their S602Z. I don't know how this telecon fare on this cam.

So, if there are more than 10 units, I can ask my friend in Japan to get it. Start the ball rolling!!

However, that's with their additional adapter though.

The rear aperture looks bigger than the c210. How big is the b-300's in comparison?

Hmmm... could anyone loan me one?

Seriously, what's the thread size of S602Z?

6 x 1.7 would be 10x!!

OK, I have taken a look at the review of S602Z at DPreview. Looks like an additional adapter is needed.

Hmmm.... Looksl ike I need to give it a try... Anyone with S602Z with step down 55mm to 52mm interested in meeting me?

There's no problem cos you could always use a step-down ring. The OEM lens adaptor has a 52mm front thread.
