Pat, I've been looking for one of those, but the price from Japan is over $1,000US. I don't know anybody who can comment as to performance on digital. On film, it was a portrait lens like the new DA 55mm for digital. The manual focus A 85mm f1.4 was sharper all around, but the FA had the bokeh and rendering for portraits. I wouldn't pay more that the price of a new DA 55mm. Regards, Bob S.
