decreased the close focus distance with this lens
dramatically with even just a short (maybe 10mm-12mm)
extension tube. Someplace around here I've got one of
those "short, medium, and long" set of stacking tubes,
and I think that even just the short tube worked quite
well (although, of course, infinity focus was then
long gone at the time - <g>).

Yes, but this depends on how close the close focus
distance should be. I found the adjustable extension
ring most convenient for shooting small animals like
frogs etc (though it is still difficult to get them in
full frame even with this ring). I mentioned the 50K
ring because it has the diaphragm coupling lever while
the adjustable extension ring has not. Without doubt,
the auto extension tube set is more versatile than the
K50 ring.
Enjoy,
Alexander
