I have Hoya HD3 on all my lenses, even cheap ones

There is more to consider...some cameras will have errors when nit using the extensions with contacts. The aperture blinks with 2 dashes (Nikon). Definitely buy the tubes with contacts, but even then, dont rely on autofocus because they use cheap contacts which suffer voltage drop. So the more you stack, the less responsive you autofucus is. My vote is dedicated macro with a raynox 2x, and maybe add 1 extension.

Of the dozens of videos I've watched on this subject, this one offers the clearest, most concise explanation of how extension tubes work, and how to use them. Many thanks! I've had a set for a while, but haven't taken them out of the box yet. I'll be taking them into the garden, today!

Given all your uv filters have above 98% light transmission; I’m guessing you don’t need to add compensation to, in my case, sekonic light meter? And yes I do use light meter and I’m proud owner of several Hoya UV filters for different high end canon lenses.

Lots of fakes on the market, check before buying.

You have a rubber lens hood on but never extend it? Seems rather silly.

Recently bought the hoya hd mk 11 for nikon for over £155 . Nothing explained in your video, in detail as to how to put the filter on and almost lost as fell off a Nikon 24-70 f2'8, but found it as very lacking in any instruction at all . Regard as arrogant from HOYA as easy to put some details when you buy, Do you srew it anti clocwise when mouting as clokwise when using take, polariser, but nothing to guide you in terms of use as perhaps a guide in the FILTER RE LOSS OF SOPS at that price from Hoya Nothing at all from HOYA SO PASS the info on as great filters, but pretty poor regarding key info for customer info as nothing. So do you srew it left to attach as turns right for polarising. Have so many Hoya filters with 45 years of photograpy, but almost lost it as fell off first day as normal srew on tight clockwise but this turning right is not to do with locking,

do you have more videos ?

what a great video , thank you im a newbie so every bit of help matters , and this did help

Hoya are great filters, but lots of fakes are out there, some makes work better than others, test different filters on each lens you own, not a case of A make works so it must work on all lenses. A minefield trying to get the best balance.

I was doing macro with extension tubes on my 40mm lens. Now I simply use a low cost Laowa 90mm f2.8 macro lens instead. More flexible in every way.

any advice,using lens hood or without....

The clearest explanation of magnification yet. Thanks, I finally understand this!

With 85mm what will provide me excellent Macro with Extension tubes

THE BACKGROUND MUSIC IN YOUR VIDEO IS A LITTLE HIGH SOME WORDS CANNOT BE UNDERSTOOD

You must be careful I’ve seen people put on uv filter for a long time and then not be able to get it off

Thanks for this great review. I have a question: with that brand of extension tubes, does auto-focus and f-stop works ?

Thanks a lot Jon for the very useful video!

This is good explanation for extension tubesb that I nowhere found, but I am a little bit confused now. I have and 4/3 50mm f2 which Olympus sell at that time as a macro lens but it was marked on the lens as 1:2. With that lens I bogth at that time dedicated EX-25 extension tube. What should I have behind that 4/3 50mm macro lens (1:2) to get 1:1 macro magnification having in mind x2 Olympus crop sensor factor?

extended tube is compatible for Canon M50 M2

With aps-c camera i can use autofocus

Great video on Hoya Circular Polarizer filters, they sure perform really good and for better images.

I just got this lens today, for my eos r with viltrox adapter but the auto focus isn't working any ideas what I need to do??? I can't seem to find any videos of this problem

Used my extension tubes after three years of purchase, and thanks to this amazing tutorial finally got to know how it should be used properly..thanks

Cover the view finder I forgot about that bit. I think I have forgotten more than I know no, its the point of know return.

Light !!!!!!! More tubes .. less light !!!!!

Only just came across you.. good video but here is my question. I have a 4/3rd camera with a 12-60 lens (24-120 on normal camera) do I match the extension tube(s) to the 4/3rd size or use the “normal”size? Your comment would be greatly appreciated Thks

Cheaping out on filters is like putting Wal-mart tires on a Ferrari.

Ive had an extension tube for some time but really not known how to get the best out of it, now I know, thanks

Very informative and concise. Thank you!

The best video on ext. tubes! 👍

Excellent presentation

Short and precise video, great information. Thank you

The best tutorial for extension tubes and how the macro world works

I recently purchased a Sony a74 mirrorless camera which has the Sony E-Mount, and I noticed that the Kenko Extension Kit for the Sony E-Mount only has 10mm and 16mm tubes which gives you a total extension of 26mm, which is not much extension.

I think that this was a good explanation of extension tubes, except that Jon did not mention that you have to add the extension that is built into the lens to get the magnification of the lens with the extension tubes. If you have your lens focused at infinity, without extension tubes and then you change the focus to the minimum focus distance of the lens, then the lens will move out, which is similar to adding an extension tube, but it is built into the lens. So for example, if the magnification of your 50mm lens is 0.2 at the minimum focusing distance, then it is like you have a 10mm extension inside of the lens. So in this case if you add a 50mm extension to your 50mm lens, then the total extension when you have the lens focused at its minimum distance will be 10mm + 50mm = 60mm, and your magnification will be 60mm / 50mm = 1.2 magnification. So basically what I am saying is that you have to add the magnification built into the lens to the magnification you get from adding the extension tubes.

Hi, thanks to share the interesting video. Out of curiosity: do you not think a variable ND filer is more convenient if it has a lever on the ring to be able to move the lens more easily to shoot videos? Thank you 1

Thank for this fantastic video. Can anyone tell me if the Kenko extension tubes will fit a Nikon D60? Also ... I have read about Kenko for Canon - do they make different types for the different cameras? Or is it one type fits all? I am looking at buying a second hand set online and can't work out if it is going to fit! I want to use it with my macro lens ... AF-SMicro Nikkor - 60mm. Thanks!

LOVING IT.

Are these kenko EXtension tubes compatible with my nikon Z5 sir?

this video deserves more views . Great video .

Can you review the Cokin 82mm NUANCES Variable ND Filter (5 to 10-Stop) please? :-)

Fantastic video mate. Getting extension tubes for the first time tomorrow so this video has been mega helpful!!

Nice video. The only thing you didn't really mention was the loss of (stops of) light when you add extension tubes. And the longer the tubes, the more loss of light. This then needs to be compensated for by using slower shutter speed, wider aperture or higher ISO. The first two options are not usually beneficial for outdoor macro work. Higher ISO can be a big disadvantage for the quality of the image. Potentially introducing a speedlight could solve the issue, but with the lens closer to the subject, that can come with some challenges too, especially with unwanted shadows. Lighting at an angle with soft light can work really well.

What camera did you use in this video?

Will this work with manual SLR Film cameras like Minolta SR-2 from the 1960s

Well explained, thanks for sharing! :) I bought the Hoya UV Filter last week and it's totally worth protecting the lenses! I'm happy with it!

Thanks. I thought that stop thing was related to the aperture as if getting narrower

One of the best reviews I’ve ever watched!

By watching this single video, I can say that this channel can grow up to be a top channel. What a quality video.. Thanks for the explanation.
