Darryl,
I have never had my hands on a FA* 4 200mm Macro.
I can say that the loss of speed between the M200/4 and the K200/2.5 is worth
worrying about, especially if you have visions of using a teleconverter too.
As to price, I think $275 would be really cheap, $350 would be low, and $450
might be an ebay price... if you could find one there. I've seen two or
three in the past 3(?) years and bought one of them!
Regards, Bob S.

K-mount manual focus 2.5 200mm on the new FA* 4 200mm macro? What would
be the pros and cons of such a trade for example:
Manual vs Auto Focus
Weigh of Lens
Loss of Speed on the FA*4
If I deside to trade what would be a fair price for the 2.5?. >>
