Dao said:Base on the information I read, extension tube will degrade image quality as well. It is because the lens is designed optimally to cast the image to the recording medium when mount directly on the camera body. When a extension tube is introduced, then the lens is not at the optimal design anymore.
Negative. There's no glass in the extension tubes. I've taken many hundreds (if not thousands) of macro images using extension tubes and I guarantee that you or anyone else could not tell the difference in the images used with or without the tubes. Now, the Canon 500D, arguably the best close up filter, does effect IQ. That's why I rarely use it anymore.
