@vasa: With pleasure.
I am using the 52mm version on my Canon A640 camera and for the size is cheap. I got it from Adorma for $42 and some change. Its one awesome little filter, but make sure it fits on your A100 SLR, or your would have to get 58mm or larger and that pumps up the price rather significantly.
I have a few shots taken with this filter and your can find them easily on my blog. Here are some:

Excellent framing !
It really makes it look like a solid box (or tunnel).

I like this shot, but does this make you worse than those people driving with their cell phones glued to their ears? --a guy driving with his camera pointing out the window? (not that I haven't done the same thing many times myself).

@Twelvebit: Yes you are right, but in this case my wife (the passenger) was the photographer. I never do that. Thanks.
@miu*: Thanks.
