Extension tubes for D70s

Postby redbluegreen on Tue Dec 19, 2006 9:46 pm

I am interested in purchasing extension tubes for my d70s, are there good and bad tubes, what is the difference? My wife is a keen gardener and would like photos of flowers. Thanks

The ones most people seem to use are the Kenko ones. They're about $150-$180 a set and are very good quality. You can buy cheaper ones on eBay but you get what you pay for. :lol:

Another vote for Kenko, worth the money. I'm saving for some 8) 8)

Another vote for the Kenko tube set. Works well on D70 (that I used to have)and present D2X with associated lenses. So should work OK on your D70s.
