OK before you get on with the 'Yiff in hell furfag' taunts. I was wondering about what wide angle lens would suit a Canon S2 IS. Would the default Canon lens addon do or another brand using an adaptor tube? I was stealing the official photographers setup photos but I was with my back against a wall and could not go futher back to get the entire group in the shot. He (The official photographer) probably had a bigger field of view on his lens. He had a DSLR vs. my semi-compact of course.

Proceed with the taunts.

The best thing to use for shooting that scene would be the M16 or possibly a shotgun. You can't miss when those disgusting faggots are lined up like that.

Sage in every field for sick fucks.

yiff in hell, furfag.

and get a raynox, too.

You'd need a compact camera or lens with a wider focal length available. This is easier to get with DSLRs due to the nature of their design. Those wide-angle adaptors tend to be very poor from any reports I've heard.

I would suggest having the crowd assemble farther back or moving your feet as the only real solutions. Of course as it seems that you're only making shitty snapshots of sick fucks you can buy pretty much any adaptor on eBay that will fit and it'll likely be enough to keep you happy.

Also: Yiff in hell, furfag.

We need to encourage people to go on killing sprees at those disgusting furfag conventions. Why shoot up a school when you can do the world a favour and remove this sort of scum from the world? A Molotov cocktail right in the middle of that group and the world would be a slightly better place. The fursuits would burn great too and almost certainly condemn them to death. A good lesson to the others.

SAGE.

If you have a look at this more recent camera: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Fujifilm/fuji_finepixs8000fd.asp

you might notice that it has a wider focal length available than your current camera. I think 28mm must be about as wide as I've seen for compacts. At that you'd probably be getting some bad distortions though. Depends on how fussy you are about the quality of the image. It'd still likely be a lot better than using adaptors. Is buying a new camera out of the question?

go back to friday, furfag.

Every time i see Tigger, Robin Hood the Fox and others, i remember those pictures of people in fursuits boning each other - YIFF IN HELL, FURFAGS. It makes me hate some of my heroes of the past just because they happen to be antropomorphic animals of some kind.

It looks interesting. But does it have a hotshoe or PC link on it? If I was upgrading I would want at least a hotshoe. Otherwise I may as well upgrade to full blown DSLR. I am not well funded right now.

I'll ignore all the furry comments. I was invited by a friend who has furry inclinations. I put up with it and ANY photo opportunity is better than none. Even if it's shooting (Yes that was so not funny previous poster) furry fags.

Oh yeah BTW. I was comparing the Raynox DCR-720 and 6600 lenses and the older 720 is discontinued (I think you can get the 730 but not sure how it compares with the 720). The 720 had a very good telephoto image. Nice and sharp. It had a lot of barrel distortion when used for it's main purpose of wide angle shots. But this can be corrected in software.

OK found some comparisons between the 720 and 730 and the 730 is better. Less barrel distortion and still pretty sharp on the telephoto. Main problem is getting it in the UK. Looks like I may have to import it from Ebay and pay customs and excise.

Put some effort in and look around a little at some of the other models. That camera has most the features you'll ever need at about half the cost of a DSLR body.

A photo opportunity is only worth while if you get some decent photos out of it. If you are really serious about photography you will need to put more effort in and use a decent camera. Spend less on fursuits and more on your camera.

You can't expect to get all features and great quality all packed into a budget camera that requires no effort on your part to operate. There is always compromise. If you aren't going to put in the effort to learn then you may as well leave it to the pro and ask for a copy of his photo when the time comes as it will be a lot better anyway.

I thought the comments here so far have been rather lulzworthy.

Only a 300mm tele on that. Where's my 18x zoom gone? If it had that it would be perfect (Well would have to see the shots of course). My S2 does 12x so I don't want a drop in tele. I know I know. In a Semi-DSLR I am probably expecting too much and should just go DSLR if I want all the options. I just don't carryong around the extra weight and the added cost of getting a body + lens(es) etc.

>> BlackAdder !!bSWRwu/NqzQ
Only a 300mm? That is not short by any means. Many people with SLRs never have anything that long or longer. What on earth are you taking pictures of that require you to zoom so far and don't let you move your feet?

Wait what? I would accept a 12x equiv lens on that type or SLR like Fuji but I find the 12x usefull and sometimes wish for longer (Cough). Depending on where I am (Not outside schools). Seriously though those Fuji's look nice. I'd love to have a focus/zoom ring instead of the crummy finger flicking nonsense on my S2. But a drop in tele is unacceptable.

Troll? My original question was for a wide angle add on for my S2 but it got somewhat diverted by talk of furries and upgrading to a new camera. I will probably just get an addon and worry about upgrading to something more fancy at a later date. Thanks for the help though. YIFF! YIFF!

Why didn't you just ask for a wide converter instead of bringing furries into it if you didn't want to get flamed?

This is 4chan, after all.

The thought occurs that, if you weren't a troll, you could have just stated that you were taking group pictures indoors and didn't have enough room with the wide angle on your S2. You know, without mentioning the furry thing. And without ending posts with 'YIFF! YIFF!'

Because it was the only suitable example image I had to hand and demonstrated my problem. Which was why I put the furry disclaimer in. Not that that made much difference. I didn't do it just for the lulz.
