I have the same problem. I just received Canon lens adapter for Canon S3IS. It doesn't fit. There isn't any way to attach it.

There is a button on the front of the camera (where it tells the pixels) push it ,twist the outer lens, it pops off and put on your converter that way......

It is just a plastic hood, no lens inside. You cannot use it with any other accessory. It does not need an adapter, and will take the place of any other kind of adapter that you might currently have over the lens.

Make certain you have the correct millimeter size lens your new hood will fit on...as there are different sizes. You should find this info on either the outside edge or inside the lens.

There are a couple external devices available, that attach over the Lens hood. They are pretty pricey. Check with B&H; Photo

Not having an X-S1 to try, I would suggest that it probably will fit. My Cannon S3 fits fine even with an adapter tube and lens hood.

Yes, but you're actually fitting it to the lens and not the camera itself. It will fit the standard T2i lens. I use it and love it.

It will fit the lens itself, not the filter, so you would first put the lens hood on then the filter on the lens hood. Hoped this helped you!

You have to put your camera on manual. This adapter doesn't connect to the camera the same way an already compatible lense would.

As it was said any times in the customer's reviews (including mine), the adaptor does not fit perfectly and you have to do a few tries before getting used to it. The main point is to put the lens aperture control finger on the good side of the adaptor aperture control pin to allow the aperture control dial to rotate. If it does not rotate, you are on the wrong side. Hope this will help. Richard.

Cannot give you specific answer......I contacted the seller of the conversion adapter and he sent me a new lens cap that fit......for free.

Sorry! I was thinking you were talking about the sun hood. I do have an eye piece that fits the T3i and it is just fine.

If only the adapter is mounted on the camera (I leave mine on my SX50 permanently), the original lens cap still fits fine, inside of it. If you leave a 58 mm filter also on the camera, then you will have to buy a 58 mm lens cap, because the original lens cap is much smaller in diameter.

Mount the lens on the adapter, mount the lens plus the adapter on you camera, focus the lens, set the f stop on the lens, set the shutter speed in your camera using the camera's meter or an external light meter, finally press the shutter. You may have to adjust the exposure slightly for the given scene. This is a fine adapter, well made and it works well, but unless you have an eos 5 series or eos 1 series full frame camera and a a few hasselblad lenses that you can't wait to saddle up then you should not bother. The s series lenses for the corp sensor cameras are very inexpensive and will yield a much more satisfactory experience.

It fits any Canon with the 50mm f/1.8 Canon lens! Hoods don't fit Cameras (T3i) they fit lens (the 50mm f/1.8)

As do I. Oddly enough, my lens didn't come with a hood. Weird. I never knew it was supposed to.
