Meanwhile, I would say I'd like an answer to my question, but it isn't there now.

I was tidying, Anthony - and tidied the wrong message.....

You were asking    " do  people still used extension tubes" , I believe........

Extension tubes are still useful on tele. lenses to allow close focussing. The attached picture of demoiselle flies would have been impossible with either of my macro lenses as to move in close would have spooked them. I put an extension tube on a  500mm lens and this allowed me to come no closer than about 5 feet.  The quality is not as good as the prime lens unaided and it alters the light transmission but without it - no picture.
