HELP I NEED HELP WITH MY SLR!!!! help please i really need help!?

Question

I have a Olympus E500 digital slr camera with a 14-45mm lens and a 50-150mm lens.
I just bought a 0.42X wide angle by digital optics (0.42X AF) that has a Opteka 58mm converter lens and a Opteka 52mm converter lens.
I need to know what kind of converter lens i need to get so that I can connect my new macro/wide angle lens to my 14-45mm or 50-150mm lens.
PLEASE HELP!
I recently asked a question about my camera and no one answered within 4 days so the question got taken off.
I really need to know!!!!

Well I already bought this just tell me which conversion lens I need I'm not taking it back.
just tell me what size thats all I need to know okay.

Please!

Answer 1

Why not ask at the store that sold you the lens? They must know the answer and you will get a quick reply since you are standing in front of them talking not just writing to them on Yahoo.

Answer 2

fhotoace is not leading you astray. BUT, it's your dollar and your images that will be ruined, so here goes.

Both your 14-45mm and 50-150mm have a 58mm threaded front filter mount. If you chose to connect your 'covertor' to your lenses, you'll have to fit the 58mm adaptor.

Be careful that the back of the convertor DOESN'T touch the front element of your lens! (Which you should protect with a 1a or UV filter, anyway.) They can be permanently damaged.

On the 14-45mm, you should see a small improvement in getting a wider view, but expect some light loss and lower image quality. On the 50-150mm, it doesn't make any sense. What the convertor would do is change the 50-150mm to a 21-63mm, defeating the purpose of using that telephoto zoom.

Convertor front-mount lenses are designed for fix-lens cameras. You have a very nice Olympus system with two starter lenses. If you really want quality pictures, look for quality lenses. Think of it this way, convertor lenses are hair extensions, poorly done.
