Re: Quick look at the FOTGA autofocus macro tubes

I posted some information on the Fotga tubes a few months ago:

Six months later, I no longer use them, their aluminium mating surfaces have grown increasingly unhappy with the stainless steel surfaces of my lenses...  One time (the last time!) I wasn't sure I was going to be able to take the tube off the lens without damage, about 3 minutes of slowly increasing panic!  The tiniest drop of penetrating oil left for 20 seconds did the job.
