What ever you do, don't get Emolux Fujian made lens. Lots of distortion and vignetting. Quite a number of photo shop selling this brand though.

Wow so expensive... I wonder why people would buy the DMW-FL360 which is nothing more than a "rebanded" FL36? :dunno:

 

[prince7]

Yeap! The LX3 is so much cheaper than its accessories comparing the function, etc...

Few will go and buy since the total price add up can buy a reasonably good DSLR camera.

The Achilles' heel of LX3 is the limited zoom range. I am wondering why only WC is available (it is already 24mm wide) and not a TC ;(

 

[popsicleheels]

i used an emolux adapter lens for my powershot before so was thinking of getting one for my lx3 despite the vignetting. anyone have any idea how much it wil cost? TIA!

 

[prince7]

S$108. You want, I can sell you slightly lower (adaptor tube with wide angle lens 0.45mm)

 

[siaohonda]

Hi prince7, can you provide me the adaptor tube & wide angle lens 0.45mm detail & brand?

is there any possibility to use an Olympus 0.7x wcon on LX3? so far, beside the Schnider version of this perticular wcon, it is the the best i have tested on my Canon G2.

[denniskee]

no lar, just curious, 24x0.7 = 16.8mm:bigeyes::bigeyes::thumbsup::thumbsup:

i have a emolux wide angle lens 0.45x; 52mm for sale @ $130.. mint condition,
i know there's people talking about emolux having vignetting, but which WCON lens doesn't?
emolux comes with readily coated UV layer, so is a better choice...

anyone interested?
