Comments about Pro Optic Pro Optic Auto Extension Tube Set for Nikon AF SLR Cameras with Full Exposure Capabilities.:
Great For Close-ups. The metal tubes were a little tight at first. But are easier to use now. They have a nice snug fit which I'd rather have compared to the plastic version of Kenko tubes which some reviewers say they are a little loose. I went to a butterfly museum and took some fantastic close-ups with the medium tube and my Nikon D90 with a 55-200mm DX lens.

Comments about Pro Optic Pro Optic Auto Extension Tube Set for Nikon AF SLR Cameras with Full Exposure Capabilities.:
I have used these tubes with the Nikkor 105mm Macro lens to get an even greater magnification ratio. These have performed as desired and I am very satisfied with them. Since there is no "whiz-bang" I didn't give them a 5 star rating, but they do perform exactly as advertised for the jobs I have used them for.
I would recommend them to someone looking for this type of tool.

Comments about Pro Optic Pro Optic Auto Extension Tube Set for Nikon AF SLR Cameras with Full Exposure Capabilities.:
Works great for macro. Lots of light. Not like the inexpensive ones where everything is dark. A good price for an excellent product.

Comments about Pro Optic Pro Optic Auto Extension Tube Set for Nikon AF SLR Cameras with Full Exposure Capabilities.:
After reading other reviews I was surprised that the tubes fit my Nikon D200 perfectly. There were easy to get on once they were lined up properly, and fit a tightly as you could possibly expect. The tubes are a great value for the money.

Comments about Pro Optic Pro Optic Auto Extension Tube Set for Nikon AF SLR Cameras with Full Exposure Capabilities.:
Stiff but functional. Does NOT provide autofocus with my trusty 50mm f1.8. Only Auto-focuses with newer motor-in-lens AF, lacks the mechanical drive needed for motor-in-camera AF. Would only recommend with this caveat.

Comments about Pro Optic Pro Optic Auto Extension Tube Set for Nikon AF SLR Cameras with Full Exposure Capabilities.:
This product works as expected, though it is tough to disconnect from the lens, or other extension tubes. That being about the only con, I am hopeful that it will rectify itself with a little break-in.

Comments about Pro Optic Pro Optic Auto Extension Tube Set for Nikon AF SLR Cameras with Full Exposure Capabilities.:
Just started getting into macro photography, but have found these extension rings to be really nice. Seem quite durable and really like the fact they are stackable (both for on-camera use as well as carry in a small camera bag).
The only trouble I have had with them (as another reviewer also mentioned) was they are quite stiff. I found they didn't fully lock-in to the camera body and get the exposure data (for my body, you just need to depress a switch when attaching).

Way more magnification than I thought. A little tight to get onto my 50mm Nikon but works great

from Moses Lake, WA on 3/6/2008
Comments about Pro Optic Pro Optic Auto Extension Tube Set for Nikon AF SLR Cameras with Full Exposure Capabilities.:
Metering pin ring exposed on barrel of tube moves freely. Tubes fit very tight. Has to be grasped firmly to engage. Free spinning meter pin band interferes with my grasp. Release lever is chromed stamped sheetmetal. Rough action and tricky to press very firmly to engage release but not to bend the lever. I returned the set. It works ok and if you are looking to spend the least you can for functionality, this is prob for you. If you are use to smooth action, precise machining and polished movements, keep looking.

Comments about Pro Optic Pro Optic Auto Extension Tube Set for Nikon AF SLR Cameras with Full Exposure Capabilities.:
Since transitioning from film to digital (Nikon photomic FTN-d80)I was "bitten by the bug" of Macro photography. Having purchased a Sigma 105mm macro lens I wanted some way to magnify the image other than close-up filter like attachments. I had to decide on either the Kenko or the Pro Optic brand. For half the price of the Kenkos the Pro Optics performed outstandingly[...]!

Comments about Pro Optic Pro Optic Auto Extension Tube Set for Nikon AF SLR Cameras with Full Exposure Capabilities.:
Great value that I could not obtain from Nikon! Quality shows through when I use these! Boxed product shows these to be for digital cams, whereas the advertisements state they are for film. Because I could see no difference, I ordered and was pleased to see "digital" shown, as that was my desired operating mode.
