Rosco Fluorescent Lighting Sleeves/Tube Guards are a very reliable and cost-effective system for easy control of tough lighting scenarios- especially under fluorescents. In addition to the financial benefits of the sleeves, they protect against the potential disaster of glass shattering by containing the lamp within the end caps.

Rosco sleeves are constructed of a solid polycarbonate tube within which is held the specific filter. The choice of filters and combination of filters is endless - there are complete Roscolux, Cinegel or E-Colour color filter lines - something for every venue, every photographer, every cinematographer.

For T5 Lamps    Over 300 Colors Available    UL94HB Rated Polycarbonate    End Caps Protect From Shattered Glass    Easily Trimmed with Scissors

Available in sizes for T12, T8 and T5 fluorescent lamps

The T8 and T5 sizes contain a UV filter that minimizes fading

All standard sizes (2, 4, 5, and 8') are easily trimmed to accommodate any size lamp

Q: 1. Does this work with canon 24-105mm or 50mm 1.8?

A: I only tried to put it on the 100mm lens and it didn't fit, so I retuned it and bought the canon model do $84, it works great. My advice is to go with the quality product.

Q: 2. Is this extension tube compatible with canon 5D mark II to use it with my EF-S Lenses?

A: I didn't test it myself (I only have an APS-C 60D) but I remember having read somewhere that several people do use the small or medium extension tube to fit their EF-S lenses onto a full-frame body.

Q: 3. I have read where these tubes will work on the Nikon D3100, but has anyone used these on the D3200? Thank You!!

A: I used with my Nikon D5200, with is very similar to D3200, and worked well.

Q: 5. Will these extension tubes work with a Canon mirrorless camera (e.g., EOS R) and Tamron 90mm lens?

A: Yes, the Vello Auto Extension Tube Set for Nikon would be compatible with the Tamron AF18-270mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD AF Lens for Nikon.

Q: 8. Whats the minimum range this extension can reach? In other words, how macro? For say the Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM with a minimum range of 0.45 m (17.72?) ???

A: The answer is not that simple. What you really want to know is the magnification achieved with the extension tube. With a 50mm lens you will get to about 1:4, aka 1/4 life size. I use this extender with a 55-250mm zoom for flexibility. Go to fredmiranda dot com slash forum and check out the macro forum for detailed info.
