Pretty much the title. I'm not heavily interested in macro photography where I'd benefit from a new lens just yet. There are a few different brands on Amazon but none by a known brand like say Viltrox.

Meike. Bought few of these including M mount macro tubes, and I am happy with the quality for the price. Now bought macro tubes for Nikon Z, and again these are great quality. Of course buy metal bayonet types. Not just plastic.
It looks like these were discontinued. Along with the Viltrox ones.
Ouch. That is very unfortunate. I see. Then you might be forced to purchase anything available. I also see just some "B.I.G." branded ones locally.
Who would have know, that M mount is dead. Bastards... 😂 Selling my M gear this week, with broken heart.
Which system are you moving to? Fuji?
Nikon. Still have my reservations, but seems it brings me least amount of compromises.
The body ergonomics ir great, the viewfinder is superb, lens choice fair, prices fair.
Left Canon for milking it, could not force myself to use Sony (A7R3), awful experience, and while putting down more money, it has to be FullFrame. So Nikon it is...
The Panasonic FF L-mount camera seems to be very good. You could look at that if you don't like E mount cameras.
But I'm sure the Nikon camera will give you good results.
I think Leica have changed from M mount to L mount.

I just bought a Fotodiox ext tube set for $14.95. After reading all the negative reviews , I was surprised how good it was for $15. fits the camera mount just right and the lens also fits properly. The sections screw together and the threads are very fine so I would be aware that it wouldn't take much to cross thread . Of course there are no contacts for $15- but I prefer M/F for very close stuff anyway. I will be using these sets pretty much as a spacer tube for a microscope objective and not a traditional lens but I did try it out with a lens when I got it yesterday and it is worth the $ for sure if you're looking for a cheap ext tube set
I'm sure as soon as you get rid of your M stuff ( which everyone knows turns into a pumpkin at midnight) and buy into something new and costly, you will immediately launch yourself into photographic stardom. right?
I got one of amazon's e-mail ads today for a cheapo autofocus extension tube set by a company called MOVO-- $19.95 believe it or not. if you are still interested-thought I'd pass it along .www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GSCJR1M?ref=em_1p_5_ti&ref_=pe_851860_731026480
