I am interested in something between 55mm to about 105mm. Old or new, I well likely use manual focus, so that doesn't matter.

Any suggestions?
Examples? (full res, un-processed preferred)

try a older 55mm manual / should be in that price range

You could get an old MF 50mm 1.8 and use extension tubes. That's my present solution. Picked up the lens in mint condition on Craigslist for $30. Tubes vary in expense, but I went with the Kenko's.
