Marc,
the FA is sometimes referred as being less reliable than the FE-2. Don't
know for sure.
The matrix metering is not as efficient as on later bodies, but you can
fall back on center-weighted metering.
The only major drawback I can see is that it lacks an AE-lock button,
which renders the center-weighted metering unusable other than in M
mode, IMO. The big advantage is that it is usually much cheaper than the
FE-2.
Hope this helps,
Nicolas.
