That bellows shot is really good. It doesn't work nearly as well at a distance (1st image), but seems like a really nice lens to use with the macro setup.

Not really an off brand, but it's not a Pentax lens.

Like Vivitar, Soligor made some good lenses and some bad ones. It all depended on who the original manufacturer was. I had a Soligor 24mm/2.8 lens that was of very high quality. Built like a tank and produced some pretty good images. I just didn't like metering with it, so I ended up letting it go. I much prefer "A" lenses or M42 lenses that can be used in Av mode.

It's a M42 lens.....I think the Toyo is a K-Mount. It doesn't have macro markings on it, but it focuses a lot closer than my 24mm Sigma Super Wide Macro did. Lowest marking is 0.3m and it focuses inside of that.
A few more images....no sharpening added. Just some cropping, saturation, contrast, levels/curves, and resize.
