Hi Charles,
Thank you for the great video.
Is it possible to tell us what's the brand of these extension tubes or any other brand you would recommend to us?
I use the Kenko Extensions Tubes
Thank you. I have the extension tubes and the only lens I use regularly is a 100 mm fixed macro lens. I've never put the extension tubes on the camera as I've been nervous about focusing. Having watched this video I might give it a go but I'll need to buy a new tripod first as the one I have is a bit wobbly due to it having fallen over once and something must have broken in it. I
A good tripod is always good to have for photography and using extension tubes on your 100mm macro lens will give you much more magnification
My Nikon D850 HAS a DOF button in the front ..... so i assume it would also work ??
Yes 100%
I've never seen extension tubes that are marked by the magnification only by the focal length. Have you already done the math to get these are magnifications or are yours different than ours?
Most Extension Tube Sets are 1x, 2x and 3x magnification.
@@CharlesNPhotography: restating what you've already said isn't telling me anything. I've seen a couple dozen difference sets online and they're all by millimeter. Do you do yours say on 2x 3x 4X and so forth?
Charles hi ..i have a ? .. been watching videos of extension tubes . but i don't know if a need a better lens .. i own a Nikon D3300 with only 3 lenses 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6 GII .... 55-200mm 1:4-5.6GII and 50mm 1.8G ..my ? is .. can i use one of these lenses with the extension tubes to take macro photos ? or i need a new lens .. if i do witch one you recommend thank you in advance...
Pedro your 55-200mm lens would be ideal to use with Extension Tubes
@@CharlesNPhotography muchas gracias thanks a lot for answering my question ... didn't find a video that explains about what type of lenses are better for macro ...I'm going to buy the extension tubes.. really like macro but my gf will get mad if I spend $800 on a lens . Cheers from Mexico 🇲🇽.
