Have now got a smc PENTAX-D FA 100mm F2.8 MACRO which ties in properly with the AF160FC ring flash. This is an early shot which is perhaps a tad soft due to diffraction (it was shot at f/32). However, it could be purely because it's an out of camera JPEG rather than a RAW file.

Either way, it's a full frame 1:1 macro and shows great potential for experimentation.
