Perhaps they changed .. I just bought the Pixco and the 10mm very clearly does NOT fit on the MC20.

Your best bet is to read the whole thread. There are pluses and minuses to the various options discussed - and I found one or two of the brands junk for my purposes. I did end up using a file and fine sand paper to widen the inside of one of the tubes I got, but now, off the top of my head I'm not sure which brand it was - and how well it did or did not work. The MFD for the 60mm is already so close that for live things that I shoot, it's not that usable - but using the Movo extension tube set with the 40-150mm f/2.8 Pro lens is much more usable, especially using the longer end of the lens.

Good luck!
