I just got a great deal on the original kenko tubes, I should have them in a day or two... but they are the older once, I guess and wont work with EFS lenses. I've seen someone say that it's easy to make them work with EFS.

Does anyone have DYI or tutorial I can look at to do this? Thanks!

Got a lathe, or a dremel or a drill? Just ream out some of the plastic baffle inside of the ext. tubes and they will work just fine.
