Oops. I actually have the F*, not the FA*. I waited for an F* to become available because I wanted the tripod mount.
The tripod mount on the F* is pretty big. The previous owner of mine actually butchered - I mean modified - it so it's a lot shorter. I had to add one other minor modification so it would fit my modified Manfrotto quick-release plate (modified to stop the lens twisting on the cork surface).
Here are some photos I took soon after I bought the lens: http://www.digistar.com/~dmann/temp/300f4-5.html
