Interesting link, Harold. An intriguing lens--though sadly lacking a collar.

The same enquiry was posted in FM Alternative Gear & Lenses forum http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1045038

My only, and so far very limited, experience of Carl Zeiss zooms is given here:

My lens has no separate macro setting.
