INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Vello Manual Extension Tube Set. Extension tubes

provide a practical way of adding macro performance to SLR camera setups.

The Vello manual extension tubes can be attached to a variety of lenses for

different effects and are less expensive than dedicated macro lenses. The exten-

sion tubes can be stacked in eight combinations, allowing for greater control of

the level of magnication.

TIPS FOR USING THE VELLO EXTENSION TUBES

• As with all macro photography, images will have a very shallow depth of

eld. To increase depth of eld, select a smaller aperture.

• Due to increased exposure times, a tripod and cable release or remote are

always recommended for macro photography.

• Closer focusing can be achieved by using the larger extension tubes or by

stacking the tubes.

• Make sure to set camera to manual exposure mode when using the Vello

Manual Extension Tube Set.

10

• At extremely close distances, it may be difcult to focus. In such a case, use

a macro focusing rail or manually set the lens to a desired focus point and

then move the lens forward or back to achieve a sharp focus.

• When using extension tubes, on-camera ash may result in unsightly shad-

ows and is therefore not recommended. For best results, off-camera ash,

dedicated macro light, or other light sources are recommended.
