Is there any value in stacking two Canon EF25 II extension tubes?
I'm putting together a macro rig for myself to primarily take bug shots and the like. I will be using either my 1D or 20D and a Canon Macro 100mm with/without the Canon MR-14 Macro Ringflash. (I have a Canon 1.4x extender also to use if need be.)
I notice that a lot of people will use their entire Kenko or Jessop tube set which gives them about 68mm of tubes. Would using two EF25s work the same way (50mm of tubes) or are they not meant to be stacked with anything other than the EF12? I've searched the web and several forums for this specific answer but can't seem to find anything.
Thanks in advance for any guidance you can offer...
