[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 194119, member: 12496"] I think you mean a "teleconverter", for extending focal length, usually 1.4x, 1.7x, or 2x longer. An "extension tube" is something quite different, a glassless tube for very closeup macro work. See [URL="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?&ci=278&N=4077634487+4294185277"]Teleconverters | B&H Photo Video[/URL] for what is available. The Nikon brand teleconverters each have a small list of compatible lenses. The teleconverters are not very sharp in the corners, and need to be used well stopped down (like f/8) to maintain some of the sharpness. An actual real longer lens is often the best choice. [/QUOTE]
