Talking about M42s, the Takumar 50mm f1.4 and f2 got missed off the list. I think Pentacon 123mm (above) is meant to read 135mm?

Two other pseudo-macro avenues for not a lot of cash are the Miranda 28mm 1:2.8 macro (which is actually a mega close focussing lens - and really sharp) and the Pentacon 30mm 1:3.5 which has phenomenal resolving power and can be heavily cropped. It's actually a Meyer Optik Lydith but since it doesn't say that on the front they don't sell for Lydith prices and you get super pictures for Pentacon peanuts!

Pity the damselfly had to land on something that was exactly the same colour.

Personally, I hate AF macro lenses because they focus on what they want to and not the precise bit you want. #3 is a good example, where the lens went for the maximum contrast at the back and ignored the front third of the flower. The IQ from this one is great, however.
