JK,
I would recommend borrowing or renting a PC-E lens to try it.

A word of warning for the younger ones among us.
Older PC lenses (upto the 85 2.8 Micro-D) have full manual control over F stops, so yo have to shut it by hand for each shot. (this is what the PC-E series remedies)
Also: the 24 PC-E is (physically) the largest 24mm lens I have ever seen.
I agree with Tom: useless without plenty of patience, a tripod and spirit level (or D4).
Regards, Gilbert
