Jan,
I'd be interested in seeing what you'd get with the OMZ 20mm in a reverse
macro set up, the grains in that slide ruler were beginning to look pretty
interesting.

You might be interested in the comparison of macro lenses I did:

I modified one to fit. I used a carbide router bit on a drill press
with a cross vise, but if you're patient, you could do the same thing
with a hand file. I removed 0.9mm of metal from the sides of the Vari-
Magni, and now it fits my E-300. It will still sort-of work on OM
bodies, but it's sloppy.
(Hint: I use #3 readers for this sort of work... :-)

I know nothing about the quality of this, but if you have $50 to
burn, it might be worth a shot.
