Extension tubes, In need of help

I need help, very bad. I have the canon 60mm macro. I can't find a set of extension tubes(for a reasonable price) that will fit this lens anywhere. It says on the kenko website that they dont fit the efs lenses. It even says "especially the canon 60mm) And jessops dont even ship to us do they? Can someone PLEASE tell me what i can do for this predicament.

not sure how long ago but there was a post stating that kenko do make a efs tube set. wasn't too long ago within the last month. i couldn't find it maybe you can. sorry couldn't help you any further.

i know theres a way to drill a hole in one of the kenko extension tubes to make it fit. sounds a bit hard and ud have to track down some diy instructions.

As stated above you can now find Kenko ext tube sets on Ebay which are EF-S compatible. Just look carefully at the advert. Seems Kenko have just released them. If you are in the UK then Jessops EOS fit tubes can be used with EF-S lenses or in the US I'm pretty certain the Pro-Optic sets from Adorama are EF-S compatible.

I just bought the Kenko Extension Tube Set off e-bay for $128 including shipping. Seller was kea-photo. Item shipped from Hong Kong arrived in perfect shape about a week later. They are authentic not knockoffs and work with both EF & EF-S lens.

Hi,

i also use Kenko's EF-S tubes with a 60mm macro and i am very happy with them. I also got them from Kea-photo on EBay
