Close-up attachment lenses

Product number Attaches to filter thread Recommended for use with
0, 1 52mm Standard lenses
3T, 4T 52mm Short telephoto lenses
5T, 6T 62mm Telephoto lenses
Close-up attachment lenses are simple
magnifying lenses that screw into the filter
thread of the lens. They are light,
convenient, and inexpensive, and fully
compatible with the camera’s exposure
and focusing systems. For best results, it’s
recommended to use them with prime
lenses (see page 187).
Nikon produces six close-up attachment
lenses, see the table below.
Extension tubes are another simple,
relatively inexpensive, way of extending the
close-focusing capabilities of a lens. An
extension tube is essentially a simple tube
fitting between the lens and the camera.
This decreases the minimum focusing
distance and thereby increases the
magnification factor. Again they are light,
compact and easy to carry and attach.
The Nikon system includes four
Extension tubes, PK-11A, PK-12, PK-13,
and PN-11, which extend the lens by 8mm,
14mm, 27.5mm, and 52.5mm respectively.
The PK-11 incorporates a tripod mount.
The basic design of these tubes has not
changed for many years, which means that
many of the camera’s functions are not
available. In particular, there’s no
autofocus. Used on the D5300, you may be
restricted to Manual (M) mode and
exposure determination will be by trial and
error—but that’s what the histogram’s for.
Kenko also produces compatible
extension tubes, which do support matrix
metering, although they still do not
permit autofocus on the D5300. They’re
also far more reasonably priced than
Nikon’s own offerings.
Some recent lenses are not
compatible with accessories such as
extension rings, bellows (see next
page), and teleconverters (see pages
164, 201
). Check the lens manual.
