Gee... How did Canon make it's way into this thread? I think PDML is being subverted...:-)

Interesting but not surprising, M42 lenses are more compatible with Canon EOS than Canon TX lenses are...

This is what I need to make it work. Thanks Christian and Jostein for
very extensive answers.
I used the Vivitar auto extension tube set that have full meter and
aperture
coupling. They don't make them anymore but i believe the Kenko tubes
are
the same (they LOOK identical).
Turns out the vivitar tubes are still available from B&H anyway: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=61535&is=REG
Notice all the contacts.
Not a bad price either.
