Macro Extension Tube Set for Minolta MD
for all Minolta MD mount film / digital SLR cameras
Detail Information
On most lenses, the manufacturers provide a focusing mechanism that extends only a few millimetres, partly to keep down costs and partly to restrict the lens to extensions for which its optics are optimised. To provide additional extension, one or more extension tubes can be added between the camera and the lens, to make the lens focus at closer distances and therefore produce higher magnification.
This brand new Macro Extension Tube Set for Minolta MC / MD / SR film SLR includes 3 extension tubes - 7mm, 14mm, 28mm adapters and a male & female adapter. You may mount the tubes between lens and camera body to get your choice of macro ranges. There are totally 8 combinations.
Use this set will not downgrade the optical quality of your lens. Sharpness and Saturation can be still maintained. But they are not meter-coupled. They do not preserve the automatic diaphragm. It should be used with manual lenses with their own aperture dial.
When using the extension ring with a MD body, the camera should be set in the ‘M’ mode.
It work with all Minolta MD mount SLR cameras, not suitable for Alpha mount cameras.
