Do any of your extension tubes mate with the Oly teleconverters?

No shaving anything involved. At least with the ones I got.

They fit out of the box.

Also, the 16mm tube wont fit directly on the TC.

It has to be stacked MC-14 > 10mm tube > 16mm tube (or a second 10mm tube) > lens.

Oh - fine - make me jealous. Good to know - the Fotodiox extension tubes work with the teleconverters with no shaving and clearly allow for the tab that is on the teleconverters that makes them not fit with some others - even if they are shaved.

I really appreciate the follow-up. Thanks - helps us all to learn.

No problem. I was in the middle of looking for something else that fit beside the Fotga tubes since they did not work and just happened to get the Fotodiox tubes today. It only took me 5 brands to find one that fit - LOL.

I am also testing 3 different Raynox front mount magnifiers if you want to know how that goes.

I have another friend working on me on that front - he uses the 150, 250 and sometimes stacks them. I think there is a 505, or something like that I have read about. I'm less interested in that option, but have seem people get some really nice results with them.

Please harshly criticize my images - it helps me better at this photography thingy.
