			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I'd recommend either a prime lens (no zoom), or a zoom that has a constant aperture. 

You might be able to find an older, vintage lens [url=http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?Camera%2520Type=SLR&_sacat=3323&_from=R40&_nkw=Macro+M42&rt=nc&_dmpt=Camera_Lenses&Focal%2520Length=Fixed%252FPrime]on eBay[/url]* and get an M42 -> Sony Alpha adapter [url=http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field-keywords=M42+to+Olympus&x=0&y=0#/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field-keywords=M42+to+Sony+Alpha&rh=n%3A172282%2Ck%3AM42+to+Sony+Alpha]on Amazon.[/url].

*You can also find older, vintage lenses like that at local pawn shops, camera stores, etc. Sometimes they're dirt cheap. Watch out for quality brand names (Zeiss, Takumar, Vivitar, Helios, Mir, Pentacon, Nikon, Canon, etc.)]]></content>

Search ebay for macro filters.
Your should look for filters that come in size 55mm
