FZ20's Wide Angle
I am aware of the great glass and tremendous zoom of the FZ20, but what
about the wide angle shots. I have seen test shots and I'm afraid that the landscapes that I enjoy shooting will suffer with the 36mm lens. The Panasonic wide angle converter is very expensive. Are there third party converters that will work with the FZ20? I am purchasing the camera, but this does concern me.

(2.2x tele, 1.54x tele, 0.72x, 0.6x and 0.5x wide angle, a pair of super-macro lenses and a fisheye wide-angle...). pete -- "there's no room for enigmas in built-up areas"

The Panasonic wide angle converter is $319 most places. The Raynox .66
converter is $99.95 and the adapter is about $16.
