[QUOTE="torgo, post: 3044, member: 909"] [FONT="Georgia"]These are probably so cheap, as compared to the Kenko ones, because it looks like they're just tubes of metal with a F-mount on them. The Kenko ones actually have electronic connections to pass lens info and do AF (with AF-S lenses). Putting the Link Delight tubes on will put you in the same boat as putting an old AI lens on. If you have a camera that you can set the lens maximum aperture information, you can probably get some metering, but no AF at all, and you'll have to have a lens with an aperture ring to set the aperture. It looks like they sell for $9.99 on the Link Delight page, plus $6 or something to ship (at least to the US). So for less than $20 you wouldn't be out much if you wanted to try them. Just don't expect much in the way of functionality.[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
