WTB: Canon Scoopic M Wide Angle Converter

[M Joel W]

Hi, I'm looking for the Canon-brand Wide Angle Converter for the Scoopic M. Canon-branded only please.

Primary reason is to use it on the Scoopic M.

Secondary reason is I want to try putting it on a 24mm FD L and see if it turns into an 18mm t1.5 K35. ?

Hi M Joel W,

 

I have one of these canon-brand wide angle converters in amazing shape that I bought with my Scoopic M. Totally willing to sell.

Still looking for one of these. Not looking for the 67mm version if I can help it because I want to try the 72mm clamp on version with other lenses too. Thanks.

Still looking for this. Clinging to this fantasy that it (and maybe a macro tube) will turn my 24mm FD L into an 18mm K35.

Oh... and I want it for my Scoopic too.

I got my hands on a similar adapter. It appears to be the same but for 80mm fronts instead of 75mm fronts. 

It works and is quite sharp – but there is a fair amount of barrel distortion. It covers full frame.

I suspect the original K35 18mm t1.5 had a special aspheron to reduce barrel distortion. I don't know if there is any replacement for that.
