Kiron 105/2.8 (Also sold as a Lester Dine or Vivitar) is probably your best bet for reasonably cheap and good. The Kiron and Vivitar versions can be had as A lenses, but not usually for sub-$100. This is a case where you're going to have to pick cheap or convenient. KA mount macros are almost never that cheap but plain K mount can be had. -Adam
