Great help to my macro work with my Nikon Z6 II (with F to Z lens adapter). I only wish the box had more charts and guides to see how large the image would be when the extension tubes are applied. The chart I got was for a 50mm lens. I would like to use these tubes to create images larger than 1:1 (which I can get with my Sigma 105mm macro lens. But I would like to know specifically how much larger I can go with the tubes. I'd like to have 2:1 or even 5:1!

Perfect fit- the best. My previous (cheap) set locked my lens to it and it took me several days to detach it. This one is smooth as silk.

Big improvement with its metal construction over the DSLR version that is mostly plastic. Very solid support for the mounted lens. Zero issues with it in use with the Z9 camera.

These are for the RF lens. They is still the best macro extension tubes, but they are stiffer than my previous Kenko set for my ES lens. They do the job and they do it well.

I wanted to check out macro before having the expense of a dedicated macro lens. These are perfect with my Canon 50mm lens and work so well that I don't think I'll even bother with the macro. I shoot jewelry so my subjects don't move. I was told AF would not work with these, but it does. Not a feature I'd use often, but nice to know it does work.

Really decent for the price. Autofocus worked for the g-master 16-35 I was using. The only improvement I can think of is that there is a tiny bit of wiggle at the connection to the lenses. I?d be a lot happier if it was a nice, snug fit.

They work. Since no glass, there's no degradation in image quality. Manual focus, but I like the control of manual focus.

For the price they should not wobble when attached to the lens or camera and they should come with a sack for protection or carrying.

Bought these as a back-up, I use these a lot on a zoom. I still shoot film + other units don't register f-stops on my EOS 3 bodies but these do. I do use mainly Canon, but couldn't justify the price.

I wanted to experiment with macro photography and wanted to try an extender ring. This seemed like it might be a good set to try. Not knowing what to expect, I opened this set when it arrived and was pleasantly surprised. The quality was excellent. They fit tightly and worked great.

These are great and allow macro/close focus with the lenses you already own.

The tubes do not firmly latch allowing a little bit of twist. It is okay for one tube, but with three tubes, some of the electrical contacts do not make contact. If you can apply a little torque to keep the lens in the as-closed-as-possible position, it works, but that is difficult to do while keeping your hands off the camera to avoid jiggles. :( So no 68mm extension.

I liked the results. You may need to add more light to the subject, but that is expected.

Inexpensive and works as described. Not much to it and much cheaper than the OEM versions.

I am extremely pleased with my kenco extension tubes, I already been shooting macro, but the tubes open up another dimension!

Fit is tight and they work great! Only draw back is the short focal range, but they work the way they are supposed to, and am very happy with my results.

I like the feel of putting these on my camera and connecting it to my lenses. Nice firm feel of mounting and dismounting them with the finger lever put on each tube.

Works as specified. Excellent build quality. I've shot several pictures and they look as expected, macro! Can't wait for winter to be over so I can get pictures of insects.Three thumbs up for this product!

Product was just as shown. I received it very quickly. I have only used it a couple of times but seem to be satisfied with it.

I bought these to use with my 200mm Macro lens and they do the job but feel very flimsy. It is sometimes difficult to get the lens attached also and there is a strange rattling noise that comes from them.

Appear to be well made. Used all three with a 105 sigma macro and am pleased with the results. I would buy them again

Nice set
By DARIN M.
I use these tubes when I want to get close to very small subjects. Depth of field is greatly reduced so you need to use a high F number (smaller aperture). Flash is also helpful but not always necessary.
versatile, inexpensive way to try macro
By TOM C.
I got the Kenko extension tubes set to try my hand at macro photography with my Nikon D5000. I mostly use the Nikon 55-200mm VR lens for this purpose, and find that it works very well with these extension tubes. The Kenko DG tubes are electronically fully compatible with Nikon AF-S lenses. Metering is fully supported with these tubes and you can even auto-focus if you like. I have tried both auto-focusing and manually focusing in Live mode with the Adorama budget focusing rails. I'm not sure ...

How can you transform your standard lens into a macro lens without breaking the bank The answer lies in the Kenko DG Extension Tube Set, designed specifically for full-frame Sony E-mount and APS-C cameras. This innovative product reduces the minimum focusing distance, enabling you to get closer to your subject and capture intricate details with ease.
Unlike many other extension tubes, the Kenko DG Extension Tube Set does not compromise on your lens' original sharpness and clarity. It operates without any optics, its primary function being to increase the distance between the lens and the image sensor. The greater this distance, the higher the magnification you can achieve.
The Kenko DG Extension Tube Set is a cost-effective alternative to investing in a dedicated macro lens, which can often be significantly more expensive. This set includes 10mm and 16mm tube rings, which can be used individually or together, depending on your specific needs. The wider the ring, the shorter the focusing distance to the object, allowing for stunning close-up images that wouldn't be possible with a lens alone.
Designed and manufactured with precision in Japan, these extension tubes are built to last. They are compatible with both APS-C size mirrorless and Full Frame E-mount Sony cameras. The set also features electronic contacts, ensuring seamless Auto Focus and EXIF data transmission between the camera and lens.
One of the standout features of the Kenko DG Extension Tube Set is its electrostatic flocking finish on the inner surface of the extension ring. This advanced technology effectively minimizes internal reflections, disrupting light rays and flares. The flocking consists of short (0.3mm -0.5mm) synthetic fibers that are adhered by static electricity on the fabric and reinforced by a coating that prevents the fibers from falling out.
In summary, the Kenko DG Extension Tube Set is a versatile, high-quality, and affordable solution for photographers looking to explore the world of macro photography with their Sony E-mount cameras.
