Hello everybody,

Do bayonet mount lens adapters used on some models of canon compact cameras same fit? I ask because I would like to fit my old nikon TC-E15ED lens on A610, while the TC-E15ED has a rear indentation of 20mm by itself I think I need a far shorter adapter tube to bring the A610 lens into the indentation rather than the standard one canon sells. Any ideas is very much appreciated.

Best Regards,

Rudolf.

Okay, I have tried out every canon adapter tubes in a shop myself today. THEY ARE ALL DIFFERENT on the bayonet size!!

Does selling those make huge profit for canon?

I did not expect this topic to have any more news but guess what? The other day I was playing around with some cheap "DKC 52mm extension tubes" and all at a sudden found them to be just fitting the A610 bayonet mount!! Any idea how to "add" the three little flaps for a perfect fit? :-)
