This adapter replaces the decorative ring on the Powershot cameras (I use an A620) and provides a 58mm thread to add filters or conversion lenses. This adapter is fine for filters or close-up lenses, but as it is made of molded plastic I don't think it is suitable for wide-angle or teleconverters, which can be very heavy.
For the latter, I would recommend the LensMate adapter which is machined aluminum (I don't work for or get any compensation for this, their adapter is just better for heavy lenses). Be warned that with some non-Canon-recommended conversion lenses, your camera's built-in lens may bump the rear element at extreme zoom, so be careful!
