Customer Reviews


The Canon Powershot SX10IS 10MP Digital Camera with 20x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom I recently purchased has at least two minor design flaws. First, the lens cap isn't attached to the camera. This would be less of a problem if, second, the little doobies - that's the technical term - on the sides of the cap that one finger-squeezes to release it from the lens were more pronounced (such as the ones on my venerable Canon-AE1 SLR), but they have an awkwardly low profile and I can see accidentally dropping the cap into the dirt on its way to my shirt pocket as I fumble to snap off a shot of those pesky UFOs that frequently hover over my house. Anyway, I can't do much about the low profile doobies or the UFOs, but I immediately went looking for a lens tether, and decided upon the BOWER CK501, which I received today.
The CK501's elastic loop fits perfectly snug around the base of the lens barrel. The 4.5 inch tether seems just the right length to me though others have considered it too short. I did note that another reviewer thought that the adhesive on the attachment button needed to be stronger, so I just made that irrelevant from the get go by using a drop of superglue; that little puppy isn't straying anywhere.
I have no reason to think the CK501 won't work out just fine. If it comes up lacking, I'll get back to you.
P.S. 9/21/09: I've now hiked down into the Grand Canyon and to remote lakes in the Rocky Mountain National Park carrying the SX10IS with the lens cap tethered by the CK501. The attachment button adhered to the cap at each of many photo ops along the way, the adhesive no doubt supplemented by that drop of superglue. In any case, the tether did its job to perfection. Without it, it's probable that I would've dropped the cap into the trail dust, a creek, or lake at some point.

I recently lost a lens cap and wanted something to make sure it didn't happen again, so I bought this product. The cord is too short to reach on my longer lens (a 70-300mm Canon), though it fits the stock 18-55mm lens OK. But it doesn't really matter as the adhesive is so weak that it just fell off after a few days of use. This product was horrible. Do not buy it!
