I have recently been given a Tocina 28-200mm macro lens, it gives reasonable results, but my problem is the image in viewfinder is very dark, I have a number of M42 lenses an all are ok in this respect, am I doing something wrong? I welcome any suggestions.

What's the maximum aperture of the lens? If it's smaller than your other M42 lenses then you will notice the viewfinder being darker. I have an f8 mirror lens which is all but unusable in anything but bright daylight for this reason.
