[QUOTE="gqtuazon, post: 298024, member: 6573"] Dave - I've played with extension tubes and with a Nikkor 135mm f2.8 Ai lens before. They are ok but they are a little inconvinient to use especially if you don't have a focusing rail. You'll need to adjust the entire tripod to get the right focus. You know what I mean if you've been using extension tubes. The dedicated macro lens eliminates that and makes the entire process and experience much more enjoyable. That's just my take on it.
