I too have hesitated buying these because I did not want to sink that much into something that worked selectively. In the slide show at the hyperlink below (cut and paste if it is not 'clickable') the box clearly shows c/afs and both white square/red dot present. Whether this makes a difference I am not sure.http://hkcarris.en.alibaba.com/productshowimg/214051231-200396816/Kenko_Marco_Extension_Lens_Tube_Makro_zwischenring_AF_DG_for_Sony_A350_SV08.html#inSearch

I just received this product and it does in fact work with my kit 18-55mm EF-S lens.

I just received my order from Amazon yesterday, and the rings work with EF-S. The product box finally clearly indicates "for CANON-EOS EF/EFS".
1014366
I just got mine in and am forced to return them because they do not support EF-S
1014367
Please let me know if it works with EF-S AND your impressions. You might motivate me to purchase it as well! :)

I contacted Adorama Camera and asked this specific question. The following is their reply:Should work, however please contact mfr @800 421-1141 to be certain I called the number and left a message, but unfortunately I haven't received a return call yet. My photography teacher has a set of these that he has let me borrow to experiment with, and his box, unlike the picture on Amazon, specifically states that they can be used with EF and EF-S lenses. I will let you know if/when I hear back from the manufacturer.
1014369
Any updates on this guys? Do you know if 1, all 3, or none of these tubes support EF-S?
1014370
I just tried to contact the manufacturer once again, and I got his voicemail once again. However, I did some research on Adorama's website, and while reading the comments there, I noticed that there are at least three people that stated they can use the tubes with both EF and EF-S lenses. I'm personally going to give it a shot! You can always return them it not...

Barry, I have a Cannon 6d and a Cannon 75-300, 1:4-5.6 and the converter works just fine. The manufacturer states that the converter is not compatible with EF-S lenses. I've not used the converter extensively, but I am happy with the few pictures that I have taken. Hope this helps.

It will work with 3rd party lenses made for Canon AF Cameras. EF or EF-S mounts are both supported by this set. Occasionally an 3rd party lens (i.e.Sigma, Tokina, Tamron etc.) will not function on newer bodies and require their mfg to update firmware in the lens. This is pretty rare though. I do not believe the original question was referring to Sigma lenses made for Sigma cameras, but rather those made for Canon. Sigma for Canon is quite popular.

Hi, I purchased this specific adapter to mount my very old Minolta lenses to my new Canon EOS Rebel digital camera. The company makes a full line of adapters most of which you can purchase here on Amazon. Look for your specific combination at http://fotodioxpro.com/index.php/lens-mount-adapters.html then return here with the part number and get your best deal by ordering from Amazon. Look at http://fotodioxpro.com/index.php/catalogsearch/result/?q=EOS+Rebel+ Remember these adapters are for mounting specific lens types to a different brand or series camera. In order to make the focal length work, there is most always additional glass (lens) in the adapter. This insures that the lens will focus correctly at infinity. ALSO!!! In many if not most cases you will lose some auto functionality like auto-focus, auto exposure adjustments etc, since the old lens never supported these functions. In my case, I am now using four old lenses from my old (1969) Minolta SRT-101 35mm SLR camera on my new EOS digital. But focus and exposure I must do my self. Just be sure that the one you order is specific for 1. your camera and 2. the lens series mount for your other lenses.

Tim, while you are right about the old lenses i.e. pre-EOS, also remember that any full frame canon DSLR such as the 5D or the 1D mark 3 will only use the EF lenses and will not work with the cheap EF-S lenses since the mount is different

Does the adapter have markings on that says it for Canon Does it say on the adapter Canon (AF)/FD if so it is the correct one from Zykkor and on the box it came in say Canon FD Lens to Canon EF Body Mount Adapter.

Sorry, there are no teleconverters for EF-S lenses available in the US that I'm aware of. I've heard rumors of EF-S compatible (Kenko?) teleconverters from Hong Kong but I still haven't been able to verify. Either way, its likely that a teleconverter with the 55-250 wouldn't be much, if any, better than simply cropping the image (might as well put the T1i's extra megapixels to good use). Plus a 1.4X teleconverter would add a stop and a 2X would add 2 stops putting your lens' aperture above f5.6, the minimum needed for auto-focus to function.
1689779
My understanding is that an EF-S lens is designed for cropped frame sensors but still has the same EF mount. So it should work with this adapter.

They do, and the set seems to be made well (metal), but I found the results to be inconsistent. The lens doesn't always get recognized from the camera when using these extension tubes. I know the Kenkos are more expensive, but I understand they work very well, compared to these. These obviously work great if I stay in manual mode. Regards. Bill in Colorado.

Sorry, I don't have any experience with Kenko's DG series of teleconverters - I think the DG series has been discontinued at B&H; and Adorama. I'v'e used a Nikon AF-S Teleconverter TC-17E II for years but now the Kenko Teleplus PRO 300 DGX 1.4x AF. The Kenko DGX teleconverter has full autofocus functionality with lenses having a maximum aperture of f/4 or brighter. Only reason I bought the Kenko is that the Nikon teleconverters only works with 2 of my Nikon telephoto lenses. The Kenko will work on all my telephoto lenses including the Tokina 400mm and Sigma 150-500mm.

Yes. The Canon EOS 70D will accept both EF and EF-S mount lenses. The Canon version of this lens is an EF mount. It will work in both automatic focus and manual focus modes.

Well, I don't have the Tamron but the Kenko is really good. I actually picked it over the canon 2x TC. I have the canon 1.4 X and they go great together and the Kenko retains AF wich the canon does not. You can't go wrong with the Kenko. Hope this could help somehow. Good shooting and keep making art.

While Doug James answered this correctly, I did look up this lens on Canon Lenses. Normally, this is an f4 to 5.6 lens and is an EFS lens for C size cameras. For extenders the widest f-stop that is acceptable is f 5.6. So when you are at f 4.0 you might be able to use this but it would be very limited. You might want to try Canon extension tubes for magnification. The 25mm seems to do best with this lens. Remember though that infinity focusing is generally lost with extension tubes.

you seem to know alot Technology guy, so im replying to ya about a lens choice. Its the CanonEF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS for a 50D im purchasing but im not sure if its compatiable or will fit should I say, Because the 50D says its a EF mount and the rebels are EF-S mount. but since they say the 50D dont come with a lens that can take the use of the full power of the camera I wanted to get something I can afford and that lens i mentiond above is less than 300 usd. So please let me know if it works on the 50D without any problems thanks.

If you are not familiar with Ed Mika, he engineers and makes customized adapters for old Canon lenses and is the only on-line vendor that I would trust with FD-EF converters. However, Ed Mika's website currently does not show an adapter for the FL 50 1.4.

Yes, the T3 is compatible with all EF-S Lenses. Note to Adams answer: EF-S Lenses such as this are designed for APS-C sensor cameras, such as the T3, but it will not work properly with full frame cameras such as the 5D.

None of the EF-S lenses will work with the 1.4X or 2X extenders. Not Bower or Canon. They will not fit the extender, the lens glass hits the extender glass.
