Look at Arnold's test: http://www.arnoldstark.de/pentax/pentax.htm They have quite similar resolution (A* is slightly better wide open, FA* is better closed down). If you take a look on test photos, for me FA* has slightly better contrast and lower chromatic aberrations than A*. So I think FA* represents much better value for money, at least optical quality-wise.
