i have both the D-FA and FA 100/2.8 macros. for the work that i like to do,
the main factor in choosing the D-FA over the FA is whether i am going out
in the field and have to walk far or not. the FA is so much heavier that i
usually don't go outside with it. also, the manual focus override while in
AF mode makes for much more convenience in the field. i also like the lens
hood. so far, i haven't noticed any difference between them. if there was
more of a difference, i would choose the sharper one to carry, even if it
weighed more.

I am still trying to choose between a D FA and a used FA.
I wish I could try them side by side.
