In 2000 and 2001, I was looking for a digital camera. After owning a few, I ended up with an Olympus C-2100 UZ. At that time most convertors for digicams came from the videocam world and were pretty bad. Olympus had a line of convertors for their 35mm camera and they were very good. They put an adapter ring from 49mm to 55mm with them and sold them for the C-2100. I saw them on Canon IS cameras, many Nikon Cool Pixes, etc. At that time there was more tendency to include filter rings on digicams and adapters were plentiful. The 2 image stabilized 380 or 370 lens cameras made the most use of them though. In fact they were so good, when they quit being made, I bought a a number of them and later sold them to pay for my hobby. Now they are back and sold as TCON-1.7X and are still just as good and still useful on Oly's 35mm cameras, although sold for digicams. Another technology from back in the 2000 was the slave flash for digicams. It is less visible in this photo. But I used it to eliminate the shadows rather than to make the on camera flash reach further. Now of course, serious photographers use dSLRs. The ZLRs are for beginners who have no interest in convertors, etc. Only an iconoclast like me remembers and uses teleconvertors for more magnification and macro convertors for shallower depth of field. :) The A1 is still CA free with the convertors so I am using them again.
