Thanks all! My takeaway at this point is to look for MF lenses that are macro or close-up enabled. That way, I won't end up with something that I can't use. There are literally hundreds of used MF lenses out there, some not too expensive. I am just trying to get the hang of it at this point.

I use my older Mamiya 645 120 f/4 Macro on a D7200 and D800e with very pleasing results. I just wish the non-cpu setup had a 120 setting.

Put a CPU in the lens adapter .... you'll get EXIF data *and* metering.

That's a good idea. I need to look into that.
