RF extension tubes?

[TwoWheeler]

I have the RF 85 macro and, with the proper kowtowing, could borrow the RF 100 macro from my wife, but was contemplating getting an extension tube or two just for playing around with.

Canon doesn’t make RF tubes and everything else seems to be made of Chinesium or Thaitanium - B&H had a few horror stories in their reviews - anyone got any experience with these?

I have Meike. They work ok with my rf100 macro and my lens baby velvet 56. Auto focus is very slow. I’ve been using manual focus.

Meike as well. Part number MK-RF-AF-1 (11mm and 18mm)

I cannot remember which (I think both) I used for this photo.

Yep got the Meike ones, and no issues.

Another example with an 18mm from Meike. The challenge of course is focusing when shooting at 35mm. As you can see the viewfinder is in focus but the camera strap on the brownie and camera body are not. VERY shallow depth of field.

Ok, that’s three votes for the Meike… I’m blaming you’se guys if things go horribly wrong.
