I think you are wrong, Mark.
Physically these short macros could be mounted to the camera body, but
you won't be able to focus...
I wonder how you dit it - maybe you stopped the lens down to f16 or
f22 and got some kind of image.
They need either the auto 65-116mm extension tube, or the bellows (or
any other extension of at least 50mm, if I remember well)
