Why not get locally from Jum McGill? He brings in th brand called Raynox. Look at the Mass Order thread to read more for the products.

Yea. saw the thread for raynox product but they are more pricey. But so far the product is quite promising.

Do be aware that some TC and WC addon lenses degrade the picture quality quite significantly. For these type of add ons, if you don't get the best (ie themost expensive int he range), there's a good chance the picture quality is going to suffer very badly.

I had one cheap one before, and boy, was it really bad.

Cheap does not always equate to good. I used te Raynox b4 and loved the shots taken.

Raynox lenses are Made In Japan, unlike other OEM brands where most are made in taiwan.
