Key Features
- Shortens Minimum Focus Distance of Lens
- Provides Macro Capability
- Includes 7mm, 14mm, and 28mm Tubes
- Can be Used Individually or Combined
The Vello Manual Extensions Tube Set for Nikon F-Mount allows your lens to focus closer than its normal minimum focusing distance. By placing distance between your camera body and lens, the focusing distance is shortened and magnification is increased. Extension tubes enable macro performance for lenses not otherwise able to focus that close, and are also suited for close-up portraiture. The Manual Extension Tube Set for Nikon F-mount contains three extension tubes of 7mm, 14mm, and 28mm lengths. They pair up with the required camera and lens adapter mounts, which add an additional 15mm to the actual extension tube lengths. The extension tubes can be used individually or together in seven distinct combinations to create the desired magnification. For closer focusing use the larger extension tube or stack the tubes together. Extension tubes have no optical elements so do not degrade the quality of your lenses.

question
Hi, I have a Nikon D-3100 and I was wondering if this would work properly with my equipment?
Yes, the Vello Manual Extension Tube Set for Nikon F-Mount will work properly with the Nikon D3100, since this camera has the Nikon F mount.

question
Do I need an adapter ring for use with my D100(52mm)?
I was referring to using the extension tube on the front of the lens with a slide copy attachment. This is NOT a wrong answer. This is the correct answer for adding extension between the slide and the front of the lens and it is a documented method. No offense, I just wanted to know what the threads were - for example 52mm, 55mm, 58mm, 62mm etc. Thank you, Mike

Like someone else asked already , What s the size of the inside threads of the extension tubes? I also would like to attach these to a filter thread between the outer end of the lens where standard filters screw on and a slide copy adapter. I understand that this may not be the intended use of those threaded tubes but we are interested in improvising
Unfortunately, Vello does not indicate the inner thread size of the tubes included in the Vello Manual Extension Tube Set for Nikon F-Mount.

Extension tubes are meant to go between the camera body and the lens. They are not intended to be used between the lens and slide adapter.

question
What does F Mount mean?
F mount is the same bayonet mount Nikon has used since the first F model film cameras with interchangeable lens. It is a a quarter turn to lock in place.

question
It looks like the 7mm tube is used in conjunction with two other pieces. Does using the 7mm ring mean the lens will be displaced 7mm from its normal position? Or is there some overhead from the other components?
Well, I purchased a set, so I can answer my own question. The camera mount tube and the lens mount tube are always used, and they move the lens out by 16mm. Any combination of the other three rings can be inserted in between them to increase the displacement. The customer should be able to learn this 16mm number from the description online. It's not even in the manual. I had to pull out calipers and measure it myself. no rings: lens is displaced 16 mm7mm: 23 mm displacement14mm: 30 mm displacement28mm: 44 mm displacement

question
Hi, I'm unclear about the threads thing. Are the threads used or not? Does the thread size matter or not? Please give me a simple direct answer, if possible please. Thanks.
The threads are only for connecting the different tubes together, and thus are all the same size. There are standard F-mount brackets on the front and back pieces, and you use the threads to connect them in the middle.
