Can others edit my Photos
Photos NOT OK to edit
Hello ALL! :)
I want to buy a "Essential Kit" I found on Amazon for my Canon T2i
http://www.amazon.com/Essential-CAN...TF8&colid=3AFO83KJL2E9G&coliid=I27ZHW04TPK3LM

but I wasn't sure if I would need a connector to connect the "58mm .43x Super Wide Angle & the 2.2x Telephoto High Definition Lenses" to my existing lens EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens AND Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 I)

Thanks everyone in advance for you advice :)

The 'super wide angle' and 'telephoto high definition' lenses are of the screw-on variety. They screw on the lens using the filter threads.

My experience wiith a similar pair of screw on lenses were that they were complete junk. My EF-S 18-135 couldn't auto-focus with the tele mounted, and the tele fell apart while unscrewing it from the lens.

The filters are very likely low-quality, and will likely have a noticable negative effect on your image quality.

Bottom line, skip the 'essential kit'. Buy what you need in terms of a dust blower, lens cloths, etc. Use your savings to buy a good photography essentials book.
