Re: WTB Long Working Distance Micro/macroscope

I should have been more precise:

The lens I am looking for is a macroscopic lens for SLR and 16mm Film
applications, not a microscope lens. It will be used to capture rare and
very
sensitive animals up to 1/8" and smaller from great distance.

The intended magnification range is between 0.1x and max. 3x, the lens
has to have a built in aperture (iris) to control Depth of Field (DOF).

All the types I mentioned have this ability

Thanks to Kevin & Aaron!
