O. Kitays remembered Dreamagon.
It's better to buy an old Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro or a used L-ku 100mm f/2.8L with a stub. 90 mm. on a full frame it somehow turns out kosher, in the bad sense of the word, because just 10 mm. lacks :)
Clauss Schroif of Opticallimits and Christopher Frost have already rolled out reviews. Very good if you take out the bokeh on the open.
