Lon, I'm on the other side of the issue. I put an extension tube on the 6x7ii and was confused for a bit because of the auto tubes I used in 35mm. All the metering must be done stopped down and exposures made the same way. It means I'll be using a tripod for anything I do 6x7 macro. Butterflies are problematic! Regards, Bob S.
