Last week I received a set of extension tubes that I had bought a few months ago to make Macro shots.
They have the "quality" of Chinese products but at first glance they lend themselves to their purpose. I had quick tests last weekend.

This solitariensis is 70 cm far from the glass ...
I was able to pull it closer with a 300mm tele lens and focus using the 31mm tube. The photo was not croped ..... I correct gama, contrast, exposure and brigthness ....

After that I had time to do some tests with the extension tubes and lenses I have and the best result I got was using 2 or 3 tubes together with my 75 ~ 300mm lens. It is not a nice lens. The brightness is very low and this forces me to work with a larger ISO, which granulates the photos a bit. This was the result:

Of course the tubes aren't nearly as good as a macro lens, but considering they cost me about $ 12, and a 100mm macro lens from Canon costs $ 600, plus shipping cost, I don't think it was a waste money. The construction is a little poor ..... the setting of the eletric contacts idem .... One of the tubes is a little tricky to release. Everything like as I had read in the reviews of the product but, anyway, I think it was worth the money I paid and overall I am satisfied with the results. In addition, I ended up photographing some corals that, because of the size of my tank, I had never photographed before.

Some more macro photo.
Unfortunately I could't get the focus properly. I don't know if it is a problem with the tubes that prevent precise focusing, or if the image is actually grainy due to the high ISO that my lens forces me to use because of the small aperture size. I also noticed a rather shallow depth of field. A few millimeters and the "focus" is already lost. Hope you enjoy.

Yesterday I removed the circulation pumps to make some photos and my Vortech MP40 didn't return to the tank.
It was in the middle of the side panel glass, making some noise in the bearing and, with the 4 gyres, it was not essential in the circulation. I'll leave it out for some time, but it's more likely that it'll be retired for good.
