Robert/JK, I think I've discovered the problem. I believe it's in the contact on the extension tubes. I noticed the display saying to "lock aperture ring at highest setting", even thought it was already locked. When I gently wiggled the lens/tube/camera interface, that notice would come and go, indication a problem with the contacts. I narrowed it down to it only happening when a tube was in use.

The flash works fine w/o the extension tubes. By the way, this was after I cleaned all the contacts on camera, tubes and lenses.

So, I intend to return the extension tubes. Do you men feel a bellows is a better alternative for greater than 1:1 perspective shooting?

Thanks for all your help, regards,
Dan
