Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. can these tubes be used with tele-photo lenses or does it have to a prime lens???

A: Yes... They work great. I use them with a Nikon 135mm f2 DC lens on a Nikon D800e for flowers. This lens has suburb bokeh but does not focus closely enough for flower portraits. Also the Nikon versions are manual only and do not supply exposure information to the camera.

Q: 2. 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.

Q: 6. If 36mm extension tube is used with Nikon AF-S DX 17-55mm f/2.8G ED lens at 55mm what is image size and min. focus distance?

A: It appears that, at the 17mm focal length setting, using the using the 36mm extension tube from the Vello Auto Extension Tube Set for Nikon F on the Nikon AF-S DX 17-55mm f/2.8G ED lens would reduce the minimum focus distance to approximately 3.18 inches (80.7 mm), and at the 55mm focal length, the minimum focus distance will be reduced to approximately 8.72 inches (221.4 mm).

Q: 7. How well will these work with a Fuji 16-80mm XF f4 lens? Could I get really close and crisp? Like say the face of a Bee?

A: The minimum focusing distance on the XF 16-80mm f/4 Lens is 1.15 ft from the subject. By adding both extension tubes to the lenses, you can get very close. However, this would be trial and error.

Q: 9. I know of Nikon F camera body mount but not Nikon F V2 mount. Please explain the difference, if any?

A: The V2 isn't referring to the F-mount, but the version of the extension tubes. The V2 (version 2) of the Nikon F-mount extension tubes seems to be a slightly newer design, and might potentially have slightly better electronics.

Q: 10. Are the contacts on the tubes spring-loaded?

A: Yes they are Chris, all 8 male pins have a spring action..
