ive got a fuji s5500 and in the back of the manual theres a bit about these extra lenses available.
Theres a wide conversion lens which gives a wider picture yes, panoramic? and a teleconversion lens, what does the latter do?
Says it changes the focal length by a factor of 1.5 telephoto equivalent to 555mm without altering the f-stop value of the lens. Does that mean an extra 1.5 of zoom? at the moment its 10x zoom so it would be 11.5x?

1.5 of zoom makes 10x in to 15x.
The wide one is about .78x.
The zoom one makes the corners dark unless you're on full zoom, and the wide angle makes the corners blur fi you're on anything other than full wide.
Nice alteration in focal length, but you have to stay at whatever end to get a picture.
