You tryin' to make me jealous, Bruce? :) I've got the SMC-A* 200mm f2.8, and it is a gorgeous lens. I wouldn't part with it for anything, except MAYBE for an AF version if I had an AF camera. Though, once again thinking about it, I do most of my shooting when it is dark and where even the best AF would have trouble. If I am going to be shooting on manual focus, I might as well have lenses that manually focus smoothly. Not that the FA* lenses are bad, I just can't imagine that they focus as nicely as my A* (or my 67 glass). -Aaron still undecided - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
