I'm glad you were able to find such a great replacement for one of your
favorite lenses.  A good macro is a great thing to have.



Thanks, I also have a SMC-A 50mm f2.8 macro which is excellent for a more
"normal" perspective or larger objects in a tight space

Already bought a replacement for my defunct Bokina macro lens. So far, I'm very satisfied with the performance, spec, and build quality. Its branded ELICAR V-HQ MACRO MC 90mm F2.5 but supposedly its made in Japan by Komine.
Its a KA mount, has nice multicoatings, and seems to be as sharp as the
Tokina was.
Whats better than the tokina, is this goes directly from infinity to 1:1,
whereas the tokina
required adding an adapter to go from 1:2 to 1:1.

Heres a sample at f9 full size and a crop of full size.
