A620 Extras question

[LaurieG]

I have the Canon A620 and know that I can get extra lenses and flash for it. I have heard confilicting reports as to if it was really worth it. Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thanks for any input

The telephoto adapter and the external flash are each about $100. Personally, I don't think they're worth it. Maybe the flash but not the lens. The flash comes with a bracket that you attach to the bottom of the camera and positions the flash to the one side. This is a better location for a flash and it looks more powerful (it looks like the size of a deck of cards).
