Hi

Want to get one of the official Fuji extension tubes. Any advice on which to go for? If it helps, I intend to use them on either the 35mm f2 or the 56mm f1.2. I also own the 14mm and the 55-200mm but it's unlikely I'll be using those?

Any advice appreciated. I'd like to pick up one or the other for shooting with this Sunday.

Thanks

First think about how you want to use the camera and if you really want surpass the 1:2  barrier.

about 99% never ever go that far and those who do buy special equipment and special lenses.

I propose to buy a used 2,4/60mm macro lens which is a very ,  wry good lens for nearly everything you can do.

Try first to test this lens if your budget might be enough for a  2nd hand 2,4/60 in good condition (about 300-250 €)…
