Then it boils down to:  if the image quality is similar/same, then the 
other supported features the the FA lens provide is what you have to 
base it on.  The FA 35 is a different optical formula, but I have heard 
nothing but good things about its image quality.  Its certainly on my 
wish list.  I have an M35 2.8, and a A35 2.8, the M suffers from the 
sticky aperture problem, and the A is just ok to me.

Someone handed me a picture and said, "This is a picture of me when I 
was younger." Every picture of you is when you were younger. "...Here's 
a picture of me when I'm older." Where'd you get that camera man?
