Hi all,

I would like to know if someone has this kind of noname EF mount extension tube :




In order to make a custom mount for my Rank Taylor Hobson 50/0.95, I need to know :

- A: the dimension of the available internal diameter of the EF mount (body side)
-B: the dimension of the smallest available internal diameter (excluding the lens side EF mount tube)


Thanks !

The internal diameter of tube is 57mm everywhere. The 47mm is only at eos mount. Except if the 0.95 need to go inside the mount nothing will stop the 48mm.

The 0.95 has to go further in the camera than the mount itself to obtain the greatest focusing distance possible. Of course without optical hack I will never achieve infinity focus... I expect to have at best 1 to 1,5 meters...

This lens has 48mm in external diameter... I've bought this extension tube and I will see if I can grind it to fit the lens...

Well, I can't say I need one... every now and then I maybe wish to measure a lens cap, but that's about it Smile
