Simon,

Yes, the lenses are attached end to end. The only problem is if you want 
to couple two wide angle, say a 35 and a 24--the rear element of the 24 
protrudes to far and it will not work. A 50 and longer lens can be 
coupled with any other lens, it is just when you have two wide angle 
lenses that you may have this problem. This is why some of us prefer to 
glue two end caps together instead.
