A beautiful result and you should be pleased with it.
F2.8 is quite fast for a macro lens and I doubt that there are too many that might be faster than that.
Many of the great macro/micro lenses are f3.5 and these lenses are considered to be excellent performers.
Thanks for posting these images

Nikkor 55/2.8, Leica R 60/2.8, OM 50/2, Zeiss 50/2 MP are all that come to mind ATM.


Well yes - Mamiya Sekor 60mm f2.8 as well.
But macro lenses faster than f2.8 ........ not so many

And now add the Voigtlander 65/2 APO

I keep using this lens and keep getting really nice results. I notice that there was a Contax/Yashica 60mm Makro-Planar lens. Both the Yashica 55mm f/2.8 and the C/Y 60mm f/2.8 are described as 6 elements in 4 groups. Does anyone have any idea how closely these two lenses are related?
