Hi! How are you? I noticed that you were looking at the Nikon auto extension tube?
Did you have some questions about this product tonight?
yes i shoot with a 5200 Nikon and i am interested in finding what might work for me. i would use a 35mm nikon lense or a 55-300 nikon lense. i mostly shoot wild flowers
Courtney B
Ok! This would work with manual focus and the exposure meter will not work either
If you use a lens without an aperture ring, you won't have control of the aperture either

I also really like the Kenko extension tubes
These would allow you to meter and change aperture
ok i do mot have an aperture ring on either lense but have a seperate meter, how would no having aperture ring work
Courtney B
Autofocus is also possible with these, but isn't always very consistent or fast
You'd always be shooting at the widest aperture if you don't have an aperture ring
what is the price range for kenko and do you have any used
Courtney B
They're $129
I'll check to see if we have any used ones available
thank you
Courtney B
You're welcome!
We don't have any used copies available at this time
ok i need to think about this, i will research them a little more, i have been getting by with out and more curious than anything
Courtney B
Ok! Sounds good! :-)
thank you i will ask for you if i purchase one
Courtney B
You're welcome!
