Canon specifies a 58mm lens adapter which bayonet connects to the body of the camera. Bugeye Electronics (click here) has a 52mm lens adapter which is directly compatible with the 52mm filter threads on the LE-Adapter.

For those that require the larger 2Plus LE-Adapter (Item #11237) you will need the special Lens Plus 37mm to 52mm stepup ring (part number 13752)

If you are presently a Canon A620, A6 30 or A640 owner you will want to step up to this new
Canon 710IS with Image Stabilization and 6X Magnification.

The Canon 710IS is totally LE-Adapter compatible in most applications including the use of microscopes, monoculars, spotting scopes and telescopes.

If your interest lies in DigiHunting* or any other type of outdoor digi-photography you will find that this camera and the LE-Adapter are a great combination.

The Canon 710IS takes excellent pictures when mounted onto a Riflescope with the LE-Adapter.
