I see these lenses on ebay, and they look interesting. How good are they?
Have anyone tested them?

I'm waiting for someone else to take the plunge. Their maximum apertures are not terribly impressive, but they are rated as having large coverage. Since I shoot on APS-C I have not seen the need to experiment with them. Perhaps if I get a FF camera they will become more attractive.

I think it might even cover many medium format digital backs.

I shoot with a medium format back, but I haven't tried the Linos lenses yet.

Interesting. Have you used microscope lenses with the back or just
normal macro-lenses?

Both!

Here are tube lens tests and test shots with Mitutoyo objectives
