I ordered the 1.4 Kodak telephoto lens and was told I had to get an adapter. I bought the adapter but was sent a 52mm and the camera and lens need a 55mm or a step-up 52-55mm ring. Kodak is out of them and don't know when they will be getting them. I need one as soon as possible.

Does anyone know where I can get the 52-55mm adapter or step up ring?

Thanks,

Tony

The Kodak adapter for the aux lens comes in 55mm size (I have a z7590). Is the adapter sold to you a Kodak product? If not exchange it or return the lens and wrong adapter for a refund and deal with a differnt dealer.

Try to get a refund on the 52mm or tossit in a back bottom drawer till you actually need one. Then like Steve said go to BHphotovideo.com. Reputable folks and you can return something with them with no hassles!

I bought a 52-55mm step up adapter from B&H. The lens connects fine but all the pictures taken through the telephoto lens are blurred. No matter what settings I try the pictures are out of focus.

I was on the phone with Kodak tech support but was disconnected. The tech sounded confused anyway.

If you have an auxilliary lens setting try it. If the camera is already set to that then disable it! Unless something is very wrong with your camera the tele lens should work! When possible if you are still having some trouble even after doing what I said then get back with Kodak and hope for a better tech to help you! Hope some of this helps! Dawg.
