I am not sure how large the M50/2 is, but B&H lists the FA20/2.8 as
1.7" long and 2.7" diameter. That's an inch shorter than the FA35/2,
which is small enough for me. ;-)

Yes, except that the only reason to buy one for me would be how
compact it is.It is really small, about the size of an M50/2 or
smaller.
And I agree, $450 is too expensive...

KEH has one listed at present for $450 in "Like New Minus" condition.
At that kind of money, I'd spend the extra $50 and buy a brand new
FA20/2.8 or FA20-35/4 from B&H.

The other day I had the chance to use Gianfranco's M20/4 on the
istD,
and liked it a lot. It's small and handles well, and it seems like I
could put up with the slowness. I do have the FA16/45 which is also
f4, but shooting with a compact rig has advantages sometimes.
How hard is this lens to find? Anyone has comments on it? (not
much on
it on Stan's page)
Anyone has one for sale? :)
