Hi!
Another question is what the right price for it would be.
I found a shop in the UK (or rather, their website) that have both a
used SMC-A 100 F/4 and a Tamron 90mm F/2.5 in stock right now. They ask

I'm still sort of casually looking for a real macro lens... Just
wondering, how do you people reckon the old f/4 Pentax macros compare to
the newer FA-100 f/2.8? (Just came across one of the former class for

My answer to similar question was to buy Tamron 90/2.5 SP lens in Adaptall 2
mount. It is fast and quite excellent optically. It is manual focus, but I
don't find it an obstacle. Actually for macro work manual focus lenses are
probably better because

Is this a 1:2 macro?
It is 90/2.5 1:2 macro and with matching adaptor it is 180/5 1:1 macro.
