Unless you're going to get the matching lieberkühn reflector, stage,  
and light source, I think you might find the 38/2.8 to be more fun.  
The 20 just gets to darn close for anything useful unless it is flat  
and specially lit.


I find the 38/2.8 to be an amazing lens.  A few examples of jumping 
spider shots taken with this lens are at:
http://members.iphouse.com/hanse112.  Go to Jumping Spider Album I;  the 
Zygoballus, Lyssonomes, and Habronattus viridipes photos are taken with 
the 38/2.8 on the 65-116 telescopic extension tube.  Phidippus Eyes was 
taken with the 20/2 at 116mm extension.  On the Shooting Jumping Spiders 
page, the far right shot at the top of the page (the two eyes) was taken 
with a 6.5mm Elgeet lens reversed.  This is macro to the max, and on the 
cheap--these lenses (either the 7mm or 6.5mm Elgeet) can be picked up on 
eBay for under $15.
