Canon PowerShot A85/A75/A70/A60

Introducing the Lensmate 37mm A85/A75/A70/A60 lens adapter. The 37mm filter size is small enough that the adapter doesn't block the AF-assist beam/self-timer lamp or the red-eye reduction lamp. It's barely noticeable in the bottom of the optical viewfinder - not enough to be bothersome and only at the full wide zoom setting. There is no vignetting caused by the adapter at any focal length. Flash blockage is also minimal, and again only at the full wide zoom setting.

The small 37mm filter diameter allows taking macro shots when you're so close to your subject that a larger filter diameter would be blocking the light. Compare to the Canon 52mm adapter (LA-DC52D) which effectively blocks all light emitters, viewfinder and flash. You can leave the Lensmate 37mm adapter and a UV filter on the A85 for full time protection of the zoom mechanism and lens without compromising any of the cameras features.

Precision machined from 6061 aluminum, the Lensmate A85 adapter has a bead blast finish which is clear anodized for a perfect match with the body. Its shape follows the lines of the extended telescoping lens and looks like part of the camera. It attaches with a twist and then locks securely until the release button is pressed so there's no way it can fall off accidentally.

Also available is an A85/A75/A70/A60 52mm adapter with the same all metal construction and finish for those who wish to use 52mm filters or conversion lenses. The 52mm adapters are available in silver anodized finish. Price for either size is $21.95, or 2 of either size at $19.95 each.

We are offering the Tiffen +7, +10 macro set (37mm only), and the Hoya +1,+2, and +4 macro sets in 52mm (not available in 37mm), in addition to UV and polarizing filters.
