Does anyone have any EOS extension tubes lenses? I'm looking for one cheap that I dont have to buy from overseas on ebay. If so, let me know the price and whether or not you'll be at the BBQ this weekend.

Something like this is what im looking for:

These are pretty decently priced, I have played with the Nikon version of them and they are fairly well made.

(Also, have you considered a teleconverter? I ended up getting that instead of the tubes and I am pretty happy with it.)

Thanks for the link. I've never used a Teleconverter. I had some extension tubes when I was using my old Film SLR, so that was just the first thing that came to mind.

My best advice to you is, find a good camera shop near you, and ask to see the different extension tubes/teleconverters they have, try them out, and ask their opinion on it. A place around me that I trust is Cals Cameras, but Im sure there is a good camera shop near you. Smile

we have two camera shops here in town, both locally owned and quite excellent. I'll have to check them out. Smile
