Wide Angle Adapter 0.43x

This Opteka adapter threads onto 55mm filter rings to widen the field of view by a factor of .43, making it useful for architectural, interior and landscape work where stepping back is not possible. It is built from water-white optical glass with a hard anti-reflective coating that resists flaking and scratching, and it maintains consistent colour rendering so lenses can be swapped mid-shoot without visible shifts.

Suits fixed-lens cameras with 55mm threads

Photographers who need a wider perspective on cameras or lenses that accept 55mm filters will benefit, especially when shooting tight interiors or expansive outdoor scenes. The adapter adds a 58mm front diameter and a 62mm filter thread for further accessories, but it provides no image stabilization and cannot correct optical flaws of the host lens. Buyers who need a wider aperture, zoom flexibility or built-in stabilization should look at dedicated wide-angle lenses instead.

Adds 58mm front and 62mm filter thread

The unit mounts directly onto any 55mm threaded lens, expanding the front to 58mm and providing a new 62mm filter thread for circular polarisers, ND filters or lens caps. Auto-focus operation is retained because the adapter contains no moving elements, and the macro attachment screws off for standard wide-angle use. No external power or firmware updates are required, leaving the camera’s original exposure metering and focus systems unaffected.

Questions about this item

Will this 0.43x wide-angle adapter fit my lens that has a 55mm front thread?

Yes, the adapter is built for 55mm threaded lenses, so it screws directly onto the front of any lens with that thread size.

If I keep my existing 58mm filters, can I still use them with this adapter attached?

The adapter’s front filter thread is 62mm, so 58mm filters will not fit; you would need 62mm filters or a step-up ring.

How can I check that the 0.43x magnification is working correctly after I mount the adapter?

Frame a scene, note the field of view, then remove the adapter and compare — the adapted view should be noticeably wider, covering roughly 2.3× the horizontal angle.
