the lens is designed to work with film SLR
perhaps not the one that the OP mentioned ?
The OP currently has a K1000, and is looking to acquire an MX. Neither body is auto-aperture, so only 2 of those DFA lenses - the 50 Macro and non-WR 100 Macrro - would work for him.
He also seems to be looking for something to fit between his 28mm and 50mm, although I agree that a Macro lens could be pretty neat. And since it looks like he will have neither auto-focus or auto-aperture, and is on a budget, he could go for an older, cheaper lens than that fits the bill.
Edit: as a whole, as @torashi noted I think we're all a bit scattershot in this thread
We're so eager to "help" the OP.
