Hasselblad - Extension Tubes

Kenko Extension Tubes for Professional Macro Photography

Professional photographers often utilise an extension tube set to achieve high-magnification imagery without the necessity of carrying dedicated macro lenses. By increasing the distance between the rear lens element and the sensor, these tools allow for a much closer focusing distance than the lens natively provides. Kenko extension tubes are engineered to maintain the electrical integrity of the camera system, ensuring that critical data such as aperture control and autofocus signals remain intact between the camera body and the lens for precise operation in the field.

Precision Engineering for Nikon, Canon and Micro Four Thirds

Unlike teleconverters which contain optical elements to shift focal length, these sets feature no internal glass. This ensures that the original optical characteristics and resolution of your lens are preserved without introducing chromatic aberration. These lenses accessories provide a practical method for exploring close-up work across various systems, including Nikon, Canon and Micro Four Thirds mounts. For those managing complex gear bags, these lightweight additions to your accessories kit offer versatility for location work where efficiency is required. You can also find relevant mounting solutions within our optics accessories range to ensure your specific kit is fully optimised for macro tasks.
