| Century 0VS-06WA-XL2
 | .6X WIDE ANGLE ADAPTER XL Ideal for shooting situations in which zooming isn’t needed, the .6X offers a 40% wider angle of view and minimal distortion. It allows partial zooming up to 8X while in Auto Focus (loses focus beyond 8X). The resulting focal length is 3.3-26mm with a 72°-10.33° horizontal angle of view). Century offers a Bayonet Mount version that attaches with a twist to the front of your XL1's Standard 16X or 3X AF Lens in place of the factory sunshade. Standard Camera Lens 5.5-88mm f/1.6-f/2.6 47.9°-3.78°
With OVS-06WA-XL2 3.3-26mm f/1.6-f/2.6 72°-10.33° | Century 0VS-07CV-XL2 
| .7X WIDE ANGLE CONVERTER XL The .7X Wide Angle Converter attaches quickly to the front of your XL's 16:1 zoom, offering a 30% wider angle of view and full zoom-thru capabilities. The .7X shifts the focal length range from 5.5–88mm to 3.85-61.6mm — with no appreciable light loss. Canon's 3X lens is compact and useful, but imagine switching those delicate electronic lenses quickly on a wet day at the beach. The .7X Wide Converter slips onto the front of the 16X zoom with a one-handed twist, instead. Yet it results in an effective focal length nearly as wide as the 3X (within half a millemeter) and zooms six times as far. Comes with popular Bayonet Mount that attaches with a twist to the front of the lens. Camera Lens 5.5-88mm f/1.6-f/2.6 47.9°-3.78°
With OVS-07CV-XL2 3.85-61.6mm f/1.6-f/2.6 64°-4.5° Full zoom
| Century 0VS-08CV-72 
| .8X HD W/A CONVERTER 72MM The new compact and lightweight .8x HD Wide Angle Converter screws onto the front of a 72MM DV/HDV camera zoom lens, effectively shortening its focal length while maintaining full zoom capabilities. Attach the compact .8x HD Wide Angle Converter to the front of a lens for 20% more coverage when set to wide angle, telephoto or anywhere in between. This can be especially advantageous when shooting in tight quarters. Features:
• Low Cost HD Quality
• Lightweight - Almost half the size and weight of other available wide angle attachments
• Compact Size & Full Zoom-through
• Universal 72MM Screw-on
• Front filter thread of 86mm. Schneider 86mm Clear filter available.
• Fits 72MM DV/HDV Cameras, Sony HVR-Z1U & HDR-FX1, Panasonic AG DVX100A & 100, Canon XL2 20X AF Lens and many more
| Century 0VS-FEWA-3XL 
| FISHEYE ADAPTER XL 3X LENS When you're shooting for a truly exaggerated point of view, twist on the Century Fisheye Adapter. The Fisheye gets you the widest view possible, with extreme barrel distortion. The fisheye exaggerates depth, pulling nearby objects closer, and causing distant objects to recede into the background. A fixed adapter, the Fisheye doesn't allow for zooming — but you'll want to stay at the wide end of the range anyway, for the most pronounced effect. Camera Lens 3.4-10.2mm f/1.8-f/2.2 70.4°-26.5°
With VS-FEWA-3XL Approx. 1.5mm f/1.8 116° non zooming
| Century 0VS-16TC-XL 
| 1.6X TELE-CONVERTER XL Add the 1.6X Tele-Converter to the front of your zoom lens to shift its focal range in the telephoto direction. The perfect tool when it's inconvenient, dangerous, or even impossible to move as close to the subject as you'd like. There is no appreciable light loss. Note that the Tele-Converter offers partial zooming. The Tele-Converter is specially effective in "run-and-gun" shooting situations because it attaches more quickly than rear-mount tele-extenders, and doesn't require exposure of the XL's delicate electronics. Need even more telephoto range? Add the Century 1.6X Tele-Converter to the front of your lens and Canon's 1.6X Tele-Extender to the rear, for the widest possible range with no vignetting. Camera Lens 5.5-88mm f/1.6-f/2.6 47.9°-3.78°
With VS-16TC-XL 56-140mm f/1.6-f/2.6 4.54°-1.57° partial zoom
| Canon EF Adapter 
| This allows users to attach Canon EF lenses to the XL H1. The difference in size between the XL H1's 1/3-inch CCD's and 35mm film means that the effective focal length of still camera lenses is multiplied by 8.8x (4:3)/7.2x (16:9).
| Canon Extender XL 1.6x 
|
Attach this extender between a Canon XL lens and the XL H1 to boost the focal length of the lens by 1.6x.

| 72MM +2.0 ACHRO DIOPTER Magnification: +2
Thread Size: 72mm This line of advanced Achromatic Diopters provides video zoom lenses with more close-up range and magnification, while maintaining zoom capabilities — without compromising image quality. Common single element diopters permit focusing at close camera-to-subject distances at the expense of image clarity, a pin cushioning effect occurs. Instead, Achromatic Diopters feature two highly corrected glass elements which minimize chromatic aberration and distortion, creating an image with edge-to-edge sharpness. An Achromatic Diopter is essential whenever it is necessary to focus tightly on a small subject with a long lens - in tabletop, miniature and flat field photography. Reduced working distance offers a range of shooting possibilities. Exceptionally crisp videography of small objects like jewelry or computer chips is now possible. A variety of industrial applications are made simpler, including remote, high-magnification visual inspection of hard-to-reach objects and manufacturing processes. For example, a camera and lens equipped with an Achromatic Diopter might be used to get an extremely accurate close-up view of signatures moving through a printing press.

| 4X4 STARTER FILTER KIT The 4X4 DV Starter Filter Kit features (3) Schneider Glass Filters in a 4-filter pouch: Circular True-Pol: Reduces glare and unwanted reflections, saturate colors, deepen blue skies, improve
contrast, and penetrate haze. ND.9: Control exposure or depth of field under various lighting conditions without affecting color or contrast. Black Frost 1/2: Subtle softening of skin texture. Flairs highlights and tones down contrast while holding black level. Removes video "edge." These filters fit in the Century matteboxes & sunshades.
| | Century 65-070147 | 72E CLEAR UV HAZE
This UV Filter blocks the invisible UV component of light from the sky, which can cause blur and to which many color films react with a blue cast. These filters should be called UV-Blocking Filters, because there are filters for technical applications that pass UV radiation and block all the other wavelengths. Nevertheless, the short term “UV Filter” has become established among photographers. UV Filters are ideal for photography in high altitudes (in the mountains), by the sea and in regions with very clean air. The pictures gain brilliance and disturbing blue casts are avoided. Because the glass is colorless, color rendition is not altered, aside from the elimination of the unwanted blue cast, and no increase in exposure is required. That makes a UV Filter very suitable as protection of the front element of the taking lens against dust, flying sand, sea water spray and the like, and it can be kept on the lens at all times. It is recommended for analog color and black-and-white as well as digital photography.

| 72E TOP POLARIZER
Linear polarizers are used with most manual focus SLR and rangefinder cameras to increase color saturation and reduce reflections. The neutral gray color and plane parallel polarizer material guarantee optimal image results. High-quality optical glass ensures excellent pictorial quality. The filter factor varies according to how the filter is positioned in relation to the sun. Filter factor is between 2.3 and 2.8.
| Century 65-072709
| 72E ND 0.3-2X (101)
The lightest B+W Neutral Density Filter attenuates the light by one f-stop (log density 0.3), which can be beneficial, for instance, for the correct exposure of high-speed films when the brightness of the subject is still too high for the fastest shutter speed and the smallest aperture. It is recommended especially as a complement to B+W Neutral Density Filter 102 for fine adjustments. The filter factor is 2x.
| | Century 65-072901 | 72E ND 0.6-4X (102)
This B+W Neutral Density Filter reduces the light by two f-stops (log density 0.6), and it is the most popular ND filter in photographic work. It offers many benefits, for instance f/4 instead of f/8 for selective sharpness instead of a great depth of field, or 1/15 s instead of 1/60 s for a flowing instead of a “frozen” waterfall. It has excellent color neutrality, costs less than the denser filters, and is recommended as part of a basic outfit. The filter factor is 4x.
| Century 65-073093
| 72E ND 0.9-8X (103)
This B+W Neutral Density Filter reduces the light intensity by three f-stops (log density 0.9). It still features very good color neutrality. This ND filter is especially appropriate for use on video cameras when the lens cannot be stopped down sufficiently in great brightness or when a deliberately low depth of field is desired. The filter factor is 8x.
