Macro Extension Tubes for Micro Four Thirds

The Kenko DG Auto Extension Tube Set adds 10mm and 16mm spacers between a Micro Four Thirds lens and camera body. It fits Olympus PEN and Panasonic Lumix models that use the M43 mount. Photographers who want closer focusing distances without buying a dedicated macro lens can use these tubes individually or stacked.

Sustained Close-Up Performance

Because the tubes contain no glass, they transmit the lens's original optical quality while reducing the minimum focusing distance. Stacking both tubes increases magnification further, though light loss grows with extension length. The mechanical design maintains aperture control and autofocus signals so the camera operates normally during extended macro sessions.

Micro Four Thirds Mount Constraints

The tubes only work with cameras and lenses that share the Micro Four Thirds bayonet. They cannot be used on other mirrorless or DSLR systems. Electronic contacts pass EXIF data and aperture commands, but lenses without internal focus motors will not autofocus. Maximum magnification depends on the specific lens focal length attached.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise do the 10mm and 16mm tubes add during all-day macro sessions?

The tubes contain no electronics or moving parts, so they generate no heat and make no sound regardless of how long you shoot.

Which Micro Four Thirds camera bodies are confirmed to work with this DG set?

The set mounts to any Olympus PEN E-P1 through E-PM2 or Panasonic Lumix G1 through GH3 and GF series bodies listed in the compatibility table.

Will aperture and autofocus still function on my existing Micro Four Thirds lenses when the tubes are attached?

Yes, the DG tubes maintain full electronic communication, so aperture control and autofocus operate normally with compatible MFT lenses.
