Hello,
This is a lens club for one of the less known members of the 50mm prime family:
The Pentax M50 f4 macro.
My understanding is that this design dates back from the M42 Takumar days. As it was later replaced by the faster 50 f2.8 macro, it fell into obscurity. But it is still capable.
Here is a minimum focusing distance test on a AC controller board taken with a Pentax KM on Ektar 100 film. Interestingly, I haven't tried it on digital yet.
it is quite sharp overall
Thanks,
