EF-M extension tubes for Macro work | 32mm f1.4 and Fotga 10mm & 16mm tubes

I've had these tubes for around 7 months so I thought it was time to make a video about them. In this case they give you full features as you would with a standard EF-M lens attached to the camera. Autofocus does work, but isn't easy due to how close we are focusing. Aperture control works as you would expect. The price I had paid was really low, so I was curious to see how they performed. The tubes are very very light weight with what I assume is aluminum for the mounts. The release buttons can be a little sticky/mushy, but other than that they have performed well so far. Most of my use was for video work to get close ups of camera equipment, but for this video I took them out three times for traditional nature macro photography. For all of those outings I used the Canon EF-M 32mm f1.4 lens with the tubes.

Here is a link to the specific tubes that I bought:
B&H alternative tubes that look higher quality:

Here is a quick example with both tubes and the 22mm:
Basically it can work, but I wouldn't expect too much image quality wise with both tubes at the same time and the working distance is short. If you use the tubes individually then you will get less magnification and higher quality with more working distance.

Get the Promaster LED120SS (8289) here:
B&H alternative (Vidpro Ultra-Slim LED-150):

Consider the more recent Canon EOS M200. Keep in mind they removed 1080p at 24 fps, but they did add a few things like clean HDMI output and cropped 4k:

Scott, are you still rocking this setup? It's intriguing and I might try it with the 32 which I already have instead of shelling out for the 28 macro. The 32 bokeh just melts everything so nicely.

Great composition on the macro shots btw!

Would extension tubes work the 22mm f/2 (min. focusing distance 15cm)? Just asking even if I do own a 32mm f/1.4.

Thankyou for such an amazing video!! But currently these tubes are not available in India, do you know any other way or platform where I can get these tubes from. I badly need them

[freeelectron]

Thanks Scott for info and macro tips. Should work with my canon m50 right? BTW what camera did you use to shoot the video?

[snowwalker]

Could they be used with the EF-m 28mm macro to get more magnification?

[benitrisna]

Very interesting video. Could you please let me know where did you buy the LED lamp?
Thank you in advance

Hello! I have the same m200, but I bought the fotodiox extension tubes (no contacts, just manual focus). It does get the result I want at live viewer, but the camera won’t shoot. Do you know what should I do to fix this (besides getting the tubes with contacts)?

Hi sir. I'm new to extension tubes. Does the extension tubes fit the other ef-m lenses as well such as the ef-m 55-200mm?

[squintygreeneyes]

wonder if results would be better doing this with extensions/extension on the sigma 56mm

[treb]

Good day sir... Does this work with canon m50 plus sigma 16mm f/1. 4?

[wilbertpadrigo]

Sorry for the 1st msg. I’m using canon m50 with ef-m 15-45mm kitlens, you think this extension tube will work in my camera?

[EODFLASH]

Suppose you used a 50mm 1.8 with an ef to ef-m adapter, and then behind that adapter you used one of these extension tubes. Would it still autofocus?

[josephryanbati]

Does it works with a manual lens like meike 35mm 1.7?

[paddyola]

I dont understand why you never appeared to stop the lens down....

[yogimuhammad]

does this work with EFS lenses on M100?
