I thought so myself. I had a set of Vivitar tubes for OM that had too much play
in them and my OM-4ti would reset with any handling of the lens with the tubes
in-between. This was VERY annoying as I lost my SPOT and MEMO settings
constantly, A set of genuine OM tubes solved the problem. The Vivi tubes worked
just fine on any body w/o the reset switch, of course.

Although I'm a big believer in the superiority of everything Zuiko, I
can't really see how the brand of an extension tube would matter.
Unless I'm really missing a n important concept, a tube simply has to
be level and light tight.

Given that (and feel free to disagree - I'm a macro newbie), can
anyone recommend a source for an inexpensive set of auto extension
tubes?
