Hello Sylwester, I don't think the A* and FA* 85/1.4 are the same optical formula. The A* is a little more general purpose like the 77 limited. The FA* is really designed for portrait work. It's sharpness in the longer focus ranges is not as good as the A* or limited unless stopped down to at least f8. But it does great portraits.
