The A* was OK, but it didn't live up to its great reputation. I much
preferred the A100/2.8 wrt sharpness, and it was easier to use for my
purposes as well.
I am also an ex-user of the A* 200/4 Macro who is now a current user of
the
A 100/2.8 Macro. I am not knocking the A* 200/4 Macro, really - I just
find the A 100/2.8 Macro to simply be the nicest macro lens I've ever used
(and I've tried quite a few of 'em, and still own a few of 'em, too).

It is truly a great lens.
The silver 77 is pretty darned nice too, BTW.
