Les montures sont bien usinées, le montage se fait très bien côté objectif comme côté boîtier. Et l'autofocus fonctionne aussi bien qu'il est possible à très courtes distances.

When I first attempted to use these I noticed it wouldn't focus. So immediately I figured it doesn't work. Well that's not at all the case. You must get very close and don't exceed the focal length of the lens you are using. For example, if you are using a 16mm lens you don't want to use both the 16mm and 10mm tube on. The build quality is pretty darn good considering they are plastic, they seem very durable for what they are. You get what you pay for. This has 100% given purpose to my Kit 16-50mm Sony lens. I use both the 16mm and 10mm tube with 50mm focal so total would be 76mm on my Sony a6400. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to do macro photography but don't wanna spend a couple hundred on a macro lens. This will not only teach you how to do macro photography it will also give you pretty good results. I hope this review has helped you by any means. Thank you for reading and thanks to Meike for making a great affordable option for those wanting to get into macro photography.

Found out about these while looking for a cheap way to take some very close up macro shots, I am new to photography and this marble photo was taken on a Sony a6000 with the cheap meike manual focus 35mm lens and the 16mm ring. I was trying to get some blurred effect around the marble and focus on the shadow. If you are using the kit 18-50 lens for the Sony the autofocus works well because the rings have the pass throughs. I am very satisfied with these rings though I am new to using them. A definite cheap way to take closeups. Plastic and on the cheap side but hey if you are a beginner like me who wants to build up your lens kit on the quick cheap side, not too bad.

They work perfectly! Photos of the camera lens were taken on a Sony A7II w/ Rokinon 45mm f/1.8 AF lens @ f/5.6 at minimum focal distance to show the difference adding both tubes makes. The photo of the bearded dragon was taken with the same camera and lens with just the 16mm tube at maximum focal distance. No crop on any of these photos.I purchased this set with the intention of being able to use any lens as a macro lens, and for that purpose, they work beautifully. No noticeable vignetting or distortion at all. I didn't have much luck in the ten seconds my camera was still set to autofocus, but I was never planning on using it with autofocus to begin with so I haven't tried very hard. They attach nicely to the camera and lens, feel very solid, and allow things like aperture control and EXIF data to flow through perfectly.

These macro tubes are pretty light weight and they hold securely to my Sony a6300 and Sigma 19 dn Art and 30 dn Art prime lenses. I wouldn't go putting a huge lens on them though, as they might rip apart. But if you want light, cheap, and good enough, then these tubes are a great buy.The only issue beyond maybe durability issues with heavy lenses, is that many regular lenses have a very limited focus range when mounted to an extension tube, so don't expect to be able to do much in the way of focus stacking for a deeper depth of field like you would with an actual macro lens.

These tubes are an easy, inexpensive way to get macro capabilities out of your ordinary lenses. They allow you to blow things up a LOT. The attached picture was taken using only the 6mm ring. You can get much closer usung the 10mm, or the two together. I used the kit lens (16-50mm) on my Sony a6000 here.I have not had luck with using autofocus with these. Using a tripod, the camera can sometimes get in the ballpark, but often not. Handheld, you can forget about autofocus. Manual focus works great, though: your zoom ring will work as your focus, and the focus ring will work as a fine focus adjustment.What's important is that f-stop and exposure metering DOES work through these. In aperture priority mode, you can set your depth of field (though it will be very thin in all cases), and all the TTL light metering will adjust the shutter and ISO to compensate--if you allow it. I'm not a full manual settings guy yet, so this is very helpful.

Poor's man version of macro lens. I love this extension tube - it lets me explore macro photography without breaking the bank.

Very good. I'm getting the macros of plants up close I want, and the electrical connections are letting the lens do its job. I have an a6000.You have to be careful with focus, as it seems the auto-focus is a little more hit-and-miss than normal, but this setup is saving me a LOT of money over a macro lens, and for my needs is doing its job spot on.Be aware, the depth of focus is short, but again, for my needs, it is working nicely.Yes, these are plastic, but quality plastic and the fit on the camera and lens is perfect. The electrical connectors are obviously good quality. To be blunt, I cannot see any advantage to these being metal since the plastic is not cheap at all.My pics are with the 10mm only on the kit lens.

Much cheaper than buying a macro lens, using with a Sony A7R III camera. Have tried them with and 85mm 1.8 and a 24 -105mm f4 lens. Can get more than 1:1 in frame. The are all plastic but well made and auto functions still work, which is amazing at this price

Pros:- Does its job and connects lens to body for reducing minimum focus distance (and reducing maximum too), allowing macro shots.- Allows autofocus and EXIF- A much cheaper solution than buying a dedicated macro lens- Easy to useCons:- Plastic, a heavy lens might break it.- Connection is not entirely secure (a lot of play), but looks like lens won't fall off.

It's a pretty simple concept, so it's hard to mess this up too much. It's basically a set of tubes with little electrical shunts to keep the electrical connection with the nex lenses. It works fine with my 18-55 and my 55-210 with the electronic connections, and of course it works fine with my manual lenses. It feels and looks extremely cheap and hollow, however. The camera-contact edge on one of them seems to be slightly offset from the tube collar so that the gap between the tube and the camera is not consistently the same width, which makes me suspicious about its tolerances, even though I have seen no problems in its functionality. I'm just taking pictures of flowers and stuff, so if the focal plane were slightly shifted, I wouldn't be able to detect that anyway. I got the plastic version. I either did not see that there was an aluminum version, or it was added to the options after I got mine. Perhaps aluminum would be less susceptible to warping, but if it's just a thin sheet of aluminum screwed onto the same plastic housing, it might not make a difference. Seeing that the aluminum version is now cheaper than the plastic version, I suspect that may be the case. I have a couple lens adapters that I bought for the same price that are much more sturdy, although they do not have any type of electrical connection, so I was expecting something a little more robust. I'd be willing to pay a little more for something like that, but I do not see that available yet until you go way up in price. So I probably got what I paid for.
