    Extention tubes

    Hi Folks I am thinking about maybe buying extention tubes for my 7D, 400mm 5.6 set up to allow getting closer to Butterflies etc. this year. Looking on the likes of ebay etc. it seems a bit of a nightmare. Can anyone advise please as Ive not a clue. Or should I just save up for maybe a 200mm...
