Re: which extension tubes for canon eos 400D

Hi cwilk,

I'm a Nikon user but the principles are the same...

I took the middle road and bought a set of Kenko tubes. These were quite a bit cheaper than the Nikon ones but not the cheapest on the market. They have the necessary contacts to maintain metering and AF, although like most people I rarely use AF for macro and never when using tubes. I do use the metering most of the time though...
