I had the DSC-H1 for a year and a half, and I believe it is almost identical to the H2---Sony to my knowledge, only makes 3 accessory/conversion lenses for these cameras... a 1.7x telephoto (ie, adds 1.7x extra zoom) and a .7 wide-angle. (Plus a Closeup lens for macro work at a slight distance.) I have the 1.7x tele, but have not tried the .7 wide angle. You might find other manufacturers with 58mm accessory lenses, but I'm not sure you can be entirely sure you'll get decent results---when you use either of those Sony lenses, you have to set the camera into the appropriate accessory-lens mode, via the menu; and that menu only offers Tele, Wide, and Closeup. Not sure what results you'd get, if you used some other add-on lens accessory besides 1.7 or .7 ... since the Sony would be expecting the optics of those 2 specific lenses.
