John, 
Re your "made for Olympus" statement.  I have a perfectly functioning
set of auto extention tubes, brand name "Venus" and that's just a
sticker on the box.  The thing is, I bought them just after I bought my
first OM1 when it first came out.  At that time Olympus didn't even
offer "auto" extention tubes.  About five years later I purchased an
Olympus 36mm extention tube and it was still manual.  I wonder why it
took them so long to market an auto tube ?

P.S.  Shawn, the usual three copies sent.  And yes, bye the way, Thank
You.
