400 Euro's for the 18-35 FA-J is extremely pricey, it's $140USD lens at B&H.
If you want a good alternative, try the Tamron 19-35, I've had surprisingly good luck with mine on film and digital (I own it in Nikon mount). Similar price to the FA-J, but it has a aperture ring. -Adam Thibouille wrote: > Any feedback concerning quality of those? > > AFAIR the FAJ is still sold new at about 400 euros. > > 2006/7/28, P. J.
