I don't see that they'd be able to make a 50mm f/1.4-1.2 lens much smaller than the current FA50/1.4 and it is a great performer. It would be much more to my liking if they released the same optics in a D-FA lens mount. A compact, pancake DA50/2.8 Limited might be neat, but I'd rather they did a compact DA28/2 Limited!
