I am looking to do close up wedding ring shots. cheers I agree that Kenko tubes are probably the best option. They have a decent build that won't break or pop loose under the weight of most basic lenses. Just don't use them with that 70-200 f/2.8 or 800mm you're getting for x-mas. Flickr

Only been playing a bit, out and about in town, but love the DoF on a portriat. I just need to get used to how shallow the depth can be when it's right down at 1.8!
