What extension tubes for K7 + 50mm 1.8 DA
Hello everyone,
I just recently got a second hand K7 with a bunch of pentax lenses (all zooms from the WR range).
So, my first purchase will be a DA 50 1.8, and I would like to get some extension tubes to also use it as macro, to eventually go for a proper macro lens once I improve my technique and what not.
My first question is, is this a good lens to use for this purpose? But the important question is, what extension tubes. I would like to retain metering and lens info, but keeping autofocus would also be nice. I have done many searches and I always end up on Kenko suggestions, but wherever I try to find Kenko AF tubes for Pentax (Amazon, etc.), I just see the Canon and Nikon variants, mostly. Do I have alternatives?
I believe this lens doesn't have a manual aperture ring, so there's that too.
Many thanks for the replies!
