    Canon A620 Wide Angle Lense in Housing??

    Hello all...

    Does the Canon A620 have a wide angle lense that you can use in the housing provided by canon???

    Or will I have to go with another housing that will fit the lense.???

    Thanks!

    I don't believe there is any way to use a wide angle lense with the Canon housing. However, if you buy the Ikelite housing for the A620, I believe there is an external wide angle lense that can attach to the Ikelite housing. I use the A620 with the Canon housing, so I can't comment on how well that option works. Maybe someone else how hast that setup can comment.
