magnification isn't much - and - happens at the 12 mm end, so one must sort of
press the lens up against the subject. This shoot was in part to test a

I have the original Pentax literature. The T132 was designed to use on their
MMC Takumar 150/2.8 165/2.8 and 2000mm/4.
The T226 for the 200/4. Seems durn good on the Oly 12-100.
I assume you used focus bracketing and stacked in PS and not the auto stack
mode, IIRC from a previous post. I suspect not too much better results with a
macro lens with an image of this size at least.
The soon to be released Panny/Leica 12-60 is much lighter and able to achieve
higher mag, as well as a bit faster on the short end, but may not be worth it
in light of these results.
