It's a distributor for certain brand of camera equipment and accessories, think have to call and ask.

For A-Mount extension tube, only know of Kenko version. Currently not aware of any camera shop in Singapore selling it. Only option is to wait for someone to sell in B&S or Internet.

Otherwise, modify a cheap teleconvertor, still hasn't got time to try out yet....

Wah...didn't know they carry A-Mount stuff, went there a few time buying filter and other stuff. One more place to ask for a-mount stuff next time.

For tube extension, brand not important as long as it's well built and has the pin pass through, it's good. :thumbsup:

why the need for pin pass-through? its full MF when you use these tubes

You need the contact pin so that the camera can communicate with the lens to change the aperture, right?

also, there is extension tube with AF, i have one.

good point. never thought of that, my set's hardly used. bought it for close-up insect shoots, but never got around to do much of it because a good set up requires lugging tripod, macro ring flash, batts etc...

Right on. :thumbsup:

tested.....wonderful.... now all my lenses became macro lens already.;p ;p ;p

My set from Teleplus does not have working AF but the aperture can be controlled though...
