Ah-ha! I had this kit a while back and used it to make some very fine pix.
You might consider looking into the "Wasia Hack". Info here, amongst
other locations:

Also, if you ever decide to sell the camera or want to go back for
some reason, here is the URL for the Official Canon download:

The lens, as you already know, is a bit slow, but IMO is a good value
for money. I actually tested it against my 50/1.4 with both set to
f/5.6 and to my eye (and the file size) the results were pretty much
identical.
Have fun!/ScottGee1
