I have a couple of F lenses, the build seems to be a bit better than my FA lenses. Some seem to contain a substantial amount of metal. I don't actually have either the FA 50mm f1.4 or the F 50mm f1.4 so I can't say that;s the case as far as these lenses are concerned thought most reviews mention the FA's plastic construction.

Ive noticed lately that the used F50/1.4 lenses are pulling
in high money lately on ebay, even more than the FA version
brand new in some cases. Anybody know what all the differences
are between these two lenses are optically, mechanically,
funcitonally, etc? Maybe its just a collector thingy or
maybe the F version is better in some way?? I have never owned
either one of them.

Doesn't anybody know? I'm curious now  :-)
