No. Essentially you already did that experiment when you tried the afocal method.
[2] I have a 0.45x macro lens, do you suggest I work out details of the entrance pupil et cetera using that in conjunction with the camera
[a] In general, the entrance pupil will be in a different place for different added lenses. The details of what you learn with one lens will not apply to another.
I don't know what "0.45x macro lens" means in this case. Can you point me to a description or advertisement?
