Addendum:
The Olys have the sort of yellowish reflections of older OM single coated lenses. They do not have a front thread, so
hoods can't be screwed onto them. As all the lenses I use one on have bayonet mount hoods, I haven't had a problem.
The Nikons have much better coatings.
The current Oly MCON-P02 is like a black hole. It's designed for 46 mm (and 37 mm), but might work well adapted up to 49
mm. Didn't work well on a 58 mm primary lens, but that's a much bigger reach. Also, higher diopter, max focus of about 11".

Thanks Moose,
These options seem to be more readily available than Nikon 5T, etc. I'll see
if I can find one at a reasonable price.
Keep in mind the relationship among FL, magnification and working distance. Furthest focus for the f=40 cm models will
be 40 cm from the front of the lens. The Nikon 3T (52 mm thread) and 5T, (62 mm) have a FL, and max. working distance,
of 67 cm.
