Not till they're discontinued. Until then they'll sell poorly. <g>
Actually this is a re-release of an older lens, a 45mm Tessar-type called
the "Guide Number" because it had a scale for figuring out flash guide
numbers.
The new manual-focus FM3A is a hybrid of the FE2 and FM2, upgrading a
number of parts of the FM2, most notably the shutter. It has 1/4000th top
shutter speed, 1/250th flash sync, and TTL flash metering.
