I'm on my second FA 24/2, wasn't happy with the first one, didn't get on with the A 24/2.8, too soft until f/5.6 and beyond, kept my K 24/2.8 for sentimental reasons but it's no better han the A. At the risk of upsetting a lot of people the manual focus Smegma 24/2.8 Superwide II is the best bang for the buck, it's usuable wide open on the *ist D, little vignetting on film SLR's until f/4, my A 24/2.8 could only just match it by F/8 and then just. The FA24/2, awesome from f/5.6 - F/11 John ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information transmitted is intended only for the person to whom it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
