Re: Manual focus lens and bellows alternative.

I have some macro lenses for Nikon (Classic Zeiss Makro Planar 2/100 ZF.2 and Voightlander Macro APO Lanthar 125mm f/2.5 SL), probably can be adapted for Canon EF without a bellows.

I never did much macro, have some macro lenses for Nikon F and Pentax K, but I’m not sure if to get macro lenses for Sony FE or Canon EF. The 100-400mm II is almost a macro lens, maybe will do fine with the 500D lens.

Would like to have the Micro Nikkor 200mm f/4D ED IF, though it’s still quite expensive used and not very high on priority. The Micro Nikkor 100mm 2.8 AI-S is very nicely made, optically good, but a bit duplicated with my other macro’s for Nikon.
