eaglesnest Member 189 posts Joined Jan 2006 Location: Ontario, Canada More info | Apr 24, 2011 22:27 | #1 With my 100 mm Macro lens F 2.8 L, I would like to add extension tube/s to get greater magnification. Does it make sense ? I came across extension tubes made in China by Phottix. Anybody knows this product? I should be able to retain all the Automatic functions they claimed. Need some tips and advice. Thank you www.eaglesnestphotography.com

Some will support AF and some will not, so check to make sure what you are getting. I have a cheaper third party brand and they work well.
