Hello all,

I'm thinking about replacing my trusted M 2/35 mm through a AF lens. A
look at Bojidar's website has taught me that the M has 7 elements in 7
groups while the FA and DA versions both have 6 elements in 5 groups
where one is an aspherical element.

Is there anyone who's ever been able to compare any two of all three of
them? How similar are the FA and DA versions optically?

I'm quite happy with the M's optical quality but my eyes aren't as good
anymore as they used to be and focussing is getting a little difficult.

I can't say anything about the M 35mm 2.0, but now I have the DA 35mm 2.4 and had the FA 35mm. 2.0 in the past.

The DA rendering and sharpness is identical to the FA, they seem to share the same optical design. The only differences are that the FA is half a stop faster, has a metal bayonet and aperture ring and comes with its lenshood, the DA has a plastic bayonet, comes without the hood and has no focusing scale. ANd it is much cheaper, of course, a bargain IMO.
