Ooooh, I've heard some really good suggestions. I'll see if I can dig up any of those old long-lost links/pictures. I've been meaning to do it myself. People have had great results using cream cheese containers and the like.

Looking sharp! I'd love to see a 100% crop (to avoid complaints about size); looking like a sweet deal at 150 bucks!
 
Absolutely sick. I'm speechless.

xvart.
 
Est, here is a larger 100% jpg crop, but take it with a grain of salt... these are default settings... ive only had the camera for a couple hours... Im sure the camera is capable of much more then I am at this point

Indy.... one caveat, the lens and camera seem excellent for the money, but the freebee Opteka lens adapter is cheesey, very sloopy fit to the camera... but hey it was a freebee

an original canon made A590 lens adapter is only 15-25usd depending on source... eventually I will probably order one,

does anyone have one?.... how is their fit?

Thx for the comments everyone, its nice to get new toys for christmas ;)
