Hi!
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.
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. The latter being even more useful because of greater working
distance from the subject - less intrusive!
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
for £245 for the Pentax lens, but only 145 for the Tamron *including a
1:1 extension tube*.
