Thanks for the video! It is always motivating to see videos like this in the big outdoors with the dog and camera, my favourite pastime! I have only one lens for my XT-1 which is a 27mm pancake lens and I love the size of this combination the most. I tend to bring it with me more often than the other cameras I have even though they would be more capable. Was half thinking of getting one of these extension tubes to add a bit more depth to this camera and lens, and that is how I happened upon your video...and I am glad I did! Go raibh míle maith agat!
Love your vids. Your passion, enthusiasm and love for photography and the outdoors really comes across and is infectious. Macro is possibly my favourite genre, it opens up new worlds all around you. Macro bubble photos can be a great afternoon if you get stuck in due to bad weather, well worth a try to practice macro.
This I super duper lovely of you, thank you so much! It also makes me smile reading that it is all infectious, I just have such a lovely photography and the outdoors, so thank you! You are completely write, macro definitely opens the world around you, it's amazing when you get a bit closer that you can see. Ooo I never thought of bubble photos but that is amazing! Thank you for that suggestion, I will try it! ☺️🤘🏻
Thanks again for your vlogging, always sweet, close up, and personal - o yeah - and simply informative. Since you mentioned locations of your viewers I hail from Santa Fe, New Mexico, US. And I have very similar love for my surroundings exploration, handheld, run and gun because there is just too darn much to appreciate each time I go out the door.
Hello Santa Fe, New Mexico! I will have to add this to the list, amazing and thank you for watching! hehe I am glad to hear you enjoyed it and found it informative! This is so awesome to read, you keep appreciating everything in the outdoors, I imagine it is very beautiful where you are too! 🙃🤘🏻
Thank you for taking the time and making the effort to make such a well thought out, informative and appealing video. You cover all the questions I have regarding buying these extension tubes. Your creativity and talent are obvious. I will probably buy these extension tubes and hopefully create some images that are artistically appealing like yours.
Thank you so much for this lovely comment and taking the time to watch my video. You words are very much appreciated! Best of luck with your extension tube and keep practicing with them - i have no doubt you’ll get incredible shots! 🙂✌🏻
Thanks for this, I was wondering which tube to get, and what the major differences are between them. I'll just (as per your advice) get both and experiment a lot. Like you said, luckily they don't break the bank. I love how energetic you are by the way, and that positive vibe and big smile make your videos a joy to watch. Keep on doing what you do, you've got one extra subscriber. All the best from The Netherlands and see you in the next one.
You are most welcome! and thank you very much! hehe yes it will work well! I have lent the Fuji 50mm F1 from fujifilm today for a week, looking forward to seeing how it goes and using it 🙃
Thank you for the comment and for watching! I haven’t actually tried the 80mm or the 90mm but it would be great to test them out. I hope you got on ok with the 90mm? And happy shooting! 🙂✌🏻
Great video Victoria. I use the 11mm with my X-T3 and X-Pro1 and really like the results. I've only just come across your channel and love your enthusiasm and presentation - and your choice of camera gear. Now subscribed and looking forward to more of your videos.
Hello Sean! and welcome to my channel, thank you for subscribing! I use the XT-3 as well and the 11mm is great! Glad to hear you enjoy it as well! Thank you for your lovely comment and there will be more on the way 🙃🤘🏻
@@wildandfreevictoria Thank you for your reply Victoria. I'm making my way through your videos so as to catch up. I like your videos on self portrait photography. You're a very skilled photographer and a Fuji enthusiast as well. All the best and catch your next video soon. :)
@@SeanC1959 Not a problem and thank you for your comments :) Aw thank you, they were my first attempt on UA-cam but they were fun! I really do enjoy photography so I think that helps! Thank you, all the best and yes, see you for the next video! 🙃🤘🏻
Thanks, this was really helpful. I love taking photos (usually just on my phone) but hate "photography" with all the jargon. I'm most interested in macro so this was great.
I agree!! I don't like faff and I don't like jargon! I like to get to the point and I am so glad you enjoyed this video! Good luck on your macro photography ventures! 🙃🤘🏻
I have never tried the MCEX tubes. Your video convinced me to give them a try :) Btw, I adore Newts, I don't see them much but when I do I stop whatever I am doing just to enjoy their cuteness. We have a couple varieties here, my favorite are these burnt-orange colored ones called the California Newt... so cute!
Thank you for this lovely comment! Yes do give them a try and let me know how you get on with them! Hehe it is lovely to meet another newt adoring human being, they are super cute! I have seen pictures of the California Newt and it does have incredible colours and it super cute! It's interesting the newt species in the UK tend to have splashes of orange on them - such as the great crested and smooth newt! Happy newt finding 🙃
Ah what a shame! They worked well for me! And of course, a dedicated lens would be the best but not always the option everyone can afford. So yeah it’s good to test macro photography with this, just incase you don’t like it 🙂
@@wildandfreevictoria I did get some flowers but sadly no newts ☺️. I used to shoot wide open for everything but never thought of going to f5.6-8 before. I liked some of the results and will mix it in from now on. Thanks for the tips.
Great video, amazing vibe and thanks for the clear explanation. You are the only one doing the handheld review and it was exactly what I was looking for. Buying them tomorrow before going mushroom picking, and photographing!

Greetings from Australia, I'm really enjoying your videos just finished watching your lens reviews. Have you thought about adapting old vintage lenses? I think you would get a lot from them & it would suit your photograph style. Obviously they are all manual but this is a small price to pay in order to use some fantastic lenses from Minolta, Pentax, Canon & Nikon etc. Be warned collecting & using them can become addictive! I have over 100 now. It all started when a customer asked if I wanted a box full of old lenses that she was throwing in the bin, I later discovered that all of them were very rare & highly sought after. Assuming you can get adapters for your Fuji, you can pick up old lenses for a fraction of the price of the modern ones.
Hello Australia! Thank you for much for your lovely comment and I am really glad to hear you are enjoying the reviews! There are more on the way! I have never thought about this but it does sound like a brilliant idea! I don't mind shooting in manual, I do this anyway, even the focus at times, I quite enjoy it :) Haha thank you for the prewarning, I can imagine it can get addictive but a harmless hobby in my opinion! To have over 100 is incredible, you could open a mini museum and discuss some history of lenses! That would be great! It is also lovely to know that you rescued a box of lovely lenses that would have been binned! I have looked at this in the past as I was looking for an old telephoto lens but there aren't many adapters out there but I shall read into some more! Thank you again for this, it was a very lovely insight to your collection and photography! Keep collecting 🙃🤘🏻
I tried the extension tubes (brand Meike, with contacts, seem to fit just right) with the 18-55 and I am not too satisfied with the sharpness. I will try to work at the tele end specifically and see if that is the problem. Or maybe a prime just has enough extra sharpness that using it with tubes is not a problem.
Thank you for this video. I love all your macro shots. I’ve been trying to take photos with these tubes on the 56 but I can’t seem to get sharp images. I guess i shouldn’t give up on them. 😅
I have them both myself, my only complaint is that they are a bit hard to take off a zoom lens, feel it's easier to take off the lens first then take it off the camera body. Love your reviews, there is something satisfying about a girl laughing with herself in a forest 😂
Thank you very much! And I agree, it is a bit of a faff to remove them, I take the whole set-up off the camera then change them over that way! Hehe well laughing to myself in a forest is my usual past time haha! 😂😁
Hi new subscriber now from Denmark. Noticed that you were in a forrest in Scotland 😉. Just been mountainbiking in Scotland. And one day we were in a forrest that looked just like that... with fallen trees. Amazing review. Just what I am looking for. I have a 35mm f2 lens which I will try with first. Love your photos. Really cool with the nose of your dog 😄👍. By the way how did you avoid those little bugs when doing the video ? I found them very hungry and they bite a lot 😆🙈
Hello and thank you for subscribing! Denmark is an amazing place! that is soo cool that you went mountain biking there, where were you? and did you enjoy it!? Thank you and I am so glad you enjoyed the review, my dog makes the perfect little model bless him! Hahah I am not too sure, sometimes the bugs ignore me and then other days I get bitten so much, but it's mainly by horseflies! 🤓✌🏻☀️🌲
@@wildandfreevictoria Hi Victoria. That was an amazing time in Scotland. I had two days in Edinburgh and then we (group of 25 riders) took a bus to Fort Williams where our bikes had been tranfered by a van. And of course we had try Ben Nevis trailpark. That was fun. We headed to Fort Augustus after that. Next day we rode to Kingussie passing the center of Scotland 👍😄. Then next day to Tomintoul passing the national nature reserve Abernethy. We stayed there for a day and did some whiskey tasting 😬. Not my liking 🤣. Then to Ballater and on the we went to Balmoral Castle to see if the Queen had made some tea for us 🙈. I think the forrest we went through was on the way to Ballater. That was tricky because trees were all over the road 😆. We had to climb over a fence and walk on rocks with bikes on our shoulders One day We even walked with the bikes up to the top of Mount Keen.... totally insane but it was worth it. What a view but very very stormy that day ☺️. We finished at Montrose. It was so awesome that I have to come back again. I could spent many hours just watching the landscape changing when the clouds were passing on the sky. Every day we saw a new type of landscape. And we had the most beautiful weather. Only raining during the night, and when we started the day the sun came through. Have you ever been to Denmark ?
Hi, as always, you look naturaly and beautiful, of course Eryk too. I have two quick questions. What do you think about the XF80f2.8 compared to the macro extension tube? Are you using IBIS?
Thank you and that's very kind of you to say! and yes, Erik is the best ☺️ To answer your questions, I have never used a dedicated macro lens so I wouldn't be able to compare it against it, but if I do get one in the future I will definitely discuss this topic! and I use the XT-3 which does not have IBIS. I hope this helps! 🙃
Pine forests are the best! I used to use these extension tubes a lot, they worked very well with the 90mm f2. Can I give a small tip, everyone might already be doing this, but having lens and body caps on the tubes when you’re not using them helps keep dust out of them and out of your camera, I think.

They sure are! you know what is also the best? Your tip! I loved that! Yes that is such a great idea and never thought of it to be honest, thank you so much for sharing! 🙃🤘🏻🦄☀️
Thanks for this video, I learned quite some. I usually have a wide angle lens and the 35 f1.4 in my kit when going on hikes. Which extension tube would you recommend for the 35 mm?
Thank you for watching and you are most welcome! the 35mm 1.4 is a fabulous lens and to be honest, either extension tube would work just fine. It is a all preference, maybe the 11mm might be a good shout but if you can test both give them a go 🙃🦄🤘🏻
The best lens to work with rings is 27mm f2.8 or you can use it with 80mm macro lens.High shutter speed,no movement ,light…..you probably need to invest in a cheap godox flash and some carton and tape so you can leave nice weather days and tripod behind.
Thank you for this, I don't own any of those lenses so for me the 56mm worked the best but if I do get them I'll definitely try them out! Ahh nooooo blasphemy hahaha no no no I cannot use a flash, I just really don't like using a flash, never have, never will, I love natural light - but appreciate you suggesting it! 🙃🤘🏻

Pine forests are the best! I used to use these extension tubes a lot, they worked very well with the 90mm f2. Can I give a small tip, everyone might already be doing this, but having lens and body caps on the tubes when you’re not using them helps keep dust out of them and out of your camera, I think. In my mind I’m imagining dust gathering inside the tubes when they’re rattling around in the bag and then that dust gets into the camera when you attach the tubes to it.

i was wondering if i can use these macro extension tubes as a substitute for a 50mm prime lens to be used in portraits?
No you can't you the lens as it would be normally used when the macro extension tube is attached. Hope this helps!

The best lens to work with rings is 27mm f2.8 or you can use it with 80mm macro lens.High shutter speed,no movement ,light…..you probably need to invest in a cheap godox flash and some carton and tape so you can leave nice weather days and tripod behind.
