>>3183247Don’t worry about the lens being macro, what I’ve done and recommend is buying an old manual focus manual appeture 50mm I use a M42 Pentax 50 1.4 a cheap mount convertor for your camera and a cheap set of eBay macro rings. They do the job exactly, make sure that nothing but the single negative takes up the image.
Also for the OP I have no idea what you are doing wrong but I press all my negs to the Perspex light box and have never had a problem with scratching. You don’t need to be ocd with bw film development, it’s 99% of the time something you can use unless you are fucking up hard
