Reversed Lens Awesome macro capabilities battle

Tokina AF 35-70mm f/3.5-4.6 vs Pentax SMC Takumar-F 35-70mm F3.5-4.5 Side by side comparisons.
The SMC Pentax-F 35-70mm f/ 3.5-4.5 is a standard autofocus zoom lens for film and digital SLR Pentax cameras.
The front filter rotates on focusing, which makes it difficult to use gradient and polarizing filters.
Macroscale: 1:4
The Tokina AF 35-70 mm f/ 3.5-4.6 Macro is a standard zoom lens for 35mm SLR cameras.
Macro 1:5.4
In reverse mode, Tokina is more capable to do macro, than in macro setting.
These are my thoughts about two Lenses above.
Pentax is lighter and fits in a pocket. convenient lens thread of 49
Low contrast may be a bonus for long exposure. And of course, you shoot on 5.6 or higher get that awesome start burst and slower shutter speed depending on the light conditions.
SMC stands for Super-Multi-Coated, the lens coating introduced in the early 1970s.
To operate Pentax in reverse mode that is very frustrating, and challenging unless you set it to 35mm.
In this test, we find out that Pentax is a low contrast lens. compared to Tokina.
Pentax produces more prominent lens bubbles in ambient light than Tokina.
Tokina may be worts of them all this may explain why it is o cheap on eBay.
But it is really awesome in reversed.
Only in reversed and on 35mm and maybe on 50mm,
maybe it works on 70 with diopter or so bu what's a point it's going to look like in macro setting.
If you don't like lens bubbles or bokeh bokhe, boakhe. Tokina its way to go.
Flash kills all lens bubbles.
The idea was to compare both lenses in reversed macro capabilities.
I added other lenses in competition, to see and compare the results.

PENTAX IS 1st.
TOKINA 2nd.
PENTAX IS LESS CONTRASTY.
TOKINA HA A LOT CONTRAS.

Actually, this to lenses has no capability of doing macro. the macro ting is a joke
the only way to get close focus is to reverse those lines
