Kenko Extension Tubes (Minolta/ Sony)

Extension tubes are a great way to focus much closer to small subjects such as an insect or flowers without the expense and weight of buying and carrying a macro lens. One extension tube takes up only as much room as a couple filters in a camera bag. Keep one or more in your camera bag at all times and you will always be ready for that macro shot.

The Kenko Auto Extension Tube Set DG contains three tubes of different length - 12mm, 20mm, and 36mm - which can be used individually or in any combination to obtain the desired magnification. The digital-dedicated DG specification means that all electrical contacts are gold plated for maximum reliability and long life. The tubes are fully compatible with TTL auto exposure and auto-focus functions on Minolta and Sony Alpha A-mount cameras.
