"The A* 200/2.8 was my first foray into good glass. I've still got it, and with the smaller sensor of the DSLRs it's getting a fair bit more use, especially paired with the AF 1.7x adapter"
Oddly enough I am thinking of selling this combination. My eyesight is not up to manual focus and I have the FA* 300 for the longer length. Having said that the A*200mm is a stunning portrait lens wide open with the most amazing bokeh. Now P have to persuade the financial controller of the need for a DA* 200mm!!
