I also bought extension tubes for macro.

which extension tubes did you get? AF works ok?

I got the Fotodiox with 10mm and 16mm.

You can use 10mm, 16mm or both (26mm).

AF works flawlessly. But you have to remember that, the larger the space between the camera and the lens (10mm, 16mm or 26mm), the closer you can get, but also there will be a smaller range than can be focused on.

My experience was that was very easy to focus with 10mm and 16mm. With 26mm, you are at the limit (max efforts with max results, after all).

I guess there is a new version now. Costs US$15 for macro capability. Not bad at all.

Some samples below, all shot handheld with AF:

Thanks for sharing! I will give it a go, the focus stacking feature in the M6II will come in handy to ensure I get everything in focus when needed
