Sounds good, I was only asking because I recently got the FA 135. I used it for the first time yesterday at a MAXXIM Supamoto race meeting locally (I was close to the action) AF seems very fast and accurate, I'm looking forward to picking up the prints. Later in the day I used the lens with a Kenko 1.5x TC, results should be interesting. I've not used a 135 for some time but the race seemed like an ideal opportunity to try things out :)
