Extension tubes are not designed to be used in combination with mount adapters or teleconverters. Doing so may damage the camera and the lens.
Each ring of the set is equipped with electrical contacts, to connect with both the camera and the lens body.
AF operations are possible but, as the depth of focus gets shorter, it is recommended to switch to manual focus.
Use the ring the width of which does not exceed the focal length of the lens used. If the width of the ring exceeds the focal length of the lens used, it will be impossible to focus on the object.
Due to the extremely shallow depth of field, it is recommended to use manual focus.
