Canon EF 12 II Extension Tube For EOS Digital Cameras

Does the job2009-02-03
Considering it's just a spacer, it would be hard for this item to be exceptional. It enables super close-up photos; I'm happy with the results.

Great Macro lens enhancer!!2008-11-17
Pros:

You can get much closer
Works with both EF-S and EF lenses
Auto focus still functions perfectly
Takes up very little room in your camera bag
Item looks about 3 times as large in photo using 17-40 Canon F/4 Lens

Cons:

A little tight to put on and take off of lens
Can no longer focus very far away let alone infinity

Review:

I purchased this Extension tube so I could take better Macro photos without having to purchase an expensive Macro lens. I've got so many lenses already.

I installed the tube between my Canon Rebel XTi and Canon 17-40 F/4 L lens and bang!!! Instant macro lens.

A photo I had taken without the tube of a penny using the Canon 17-40 zoomed to 40mm gave a so so image. Putting the tube on allowed me to focus so close the penny filled almost the entire view finder. Looking at the penny image taken with the tube you can see little details I never noticed before like each and ever step and little details like the little FG on the lower right corner on the back of the penny.

Verdict:

I highly recommend it's worth every penny!!!
As good as a Macro lens (almost)2008-08-27
Good product, does what it says it'll do. I was suprised how well it works.

Camera basics: shutter-speed, aperture and ISO
In this article, I’ll introduce you to the basic elements that you can use to control exposure in your shooting. If you have a digital SLR, there will be a way to set all of these controls on your camera, but since they differ between manufacturers and models, you’ll need to refer to your camera’s manual to find out exactly how to change them. All cameras, whether an ancient film camera, or a more modern digital, work in pretty much the same way. Photographs are taken by letting light fall onto a light-sensitive medium, which records the image. Traditionally, this has been film, but more recently, it tends to be a digital sensor. The more light that falls onto the film or sensor, the lighter the image. Put simply, a camera consists of a light-tight box that stores a light-sensitive device (either a film or a digital sensor), a lens that magnifies and focuses the image onto that light-sensitive device through a hole in the box (called the aperture) , and a shutter that opens ...
