Product Details / Description:

This converter set significantly expands the photographic capabilities of your Olympus Tough camera, turning a highly durable point-and-shoot into a versatile tool for capturing a wider range of scenes across Japan’s diverse landscapes.

About the Product

The Fisheye Converter offers a 0.74x magnification, ideal for capturing expansive city views, vast landscapes, or giving an engaging, wide perspective underwater. It maintains the inherent brightness of the camera’s lens, ensuring high image quality even in challenging lighting conditions. The Teleconverter provides a 1.7x magnification, extending the camera’s maximum zoom to bring distant subjects—such as wildlife or far-off architecture—closer without a significant loss in image quality.

Both converters attach via the included Converter Adapter. While the lenses themselves are waterproof up to 20 meters, it is important to note that when any of these accessories are attached to the camera, the camera’s official waterproof, shockproof, and crushproof performance rating is no longer guaranteed to meet Olympus test conditions. For best results, use the Fisheye Converter at the camera’s wide-angle end and the Teleconverter at the telephoto end.

Faqs:

Do I need any special tools to attach these converters?

No, you do not need special tools. Both the Fisheye Converter and Teleconverter screw directly onto the Converter Adapter, which in turn attaches to the camera body. They are designed for easy, screw-on attachment (O40.5mm thread).

Can I use these converter lenses underwater?

Yes, both converter lenses are sealed and rated as equivalent to protection class IPX8, meaning they can be used at depths up to 20 meters. This makes them a great tool for underwater snorkeling or shallow diving with the Tough series camera.

What is the benefit of the Fisheye Converter over just using the camera’s wide-angle setting?

The Fisheye Converter captures a much wider field of view than the camera’s native wide-angle lens (25 millimeter equivalent), often resulting in a dramatic, curved, ultra-wide perspective. This is particularly effective for creative shots and making small spaces look expansive.

Will the Teleconverter help me with extreme long-distance shots like the Nikon P1000?

While the Teleconverter extends the reach of the Tough camera (e.g., turning a 100 millimeter telephoto into a 170 millimeter equivalent), it does not compete with the extreme super-zoom of cameras like the Nikon P1000 (3000 millimeter). It is best used for medium-range telephoto shots and portraits.
