Sturdy Adaptor [Posted on 2006-08-29] There's really not much else to say. Perhaps I can review a hex nut next. ;-)
Solid 55mm Adapter, if you need it [Posted on 2007-08-14] If you want to use 55mm lens or filter, then DMW-LA2 is for you. However, the FZ8 (the one I own) comes with 52mm adapter. Unless you really want to use Panasonic wide or telephoto lens (only 55mm), you don't need it.
However, the feel of the material is very good. It is thicker than the included adapter, so I feel safe to attach heavier lens.
Moreover, you can not use included lens hood with this (included lens hood is for included 52mm adapter).
Warning - Panasonic FZ18 Takes A Different Adapter [Posted on 2007-11-16] This isn't really a review of the DMW-LA2 so much as a heads up. If you buy the DMW-LT55 teleconverter for the Panasonic Lumix FZ18, you'll get a reminder that "People who bought this also bought the DMW-LA2". Don't buy this one if you have the new FZ18!
The DMW-LA2 is the correct adapter for the FZ7 but NOT to the FZ18. The FZ18 needs the DMW-LA3, and the "3" isn't available in the US as of mid-November 2007 (supposedly available by the end of November).
