FA (AKA KAF2) lenses do not all have power zooming--in
fact, only the initial ones did.
See Boz's page:

KAF2 lenses without power zooming feature a 4-bit CPU
that is virtually identical to that used by the KAF
lenses, but it supports
My own experiments with my (P)Z-1p indicate that the
distance information is also used in TTL flash
metering. For example, if the lens is focused on a
distant subject, the flash will properly expose it, at
the cost of overexposing closer objects.

A are supposed to allow PTTL right? So How does it work without
distance information?
I want to know !
It works, maybe a little less precise in certain situations. All is

I like it. I would crop out the left ~2cm and the

Nice! I think it could be improved by straightening
the waterline (which will also make the verticals
