Re: 300mm f2.8 (FA vs A)
Hi Jerome, Don't know for sure, the prices you mention are for "new" I suppose ... I own the "SMCP-A* 300mm f/2.8 ED IF" which I bought used for about US $3000 two years ago. All I can say it has a VERY solid build, is remarkebly sharp and has enough contrast. It also combines perfectly with the MF 1.4xL and 2xL teleconverters, and as a bonus you can turn it into a very usefull 510mm f/4.7 autofocus lens using the 1.7x AF adapter. I doubt the AF version of the lens is any less optically, but maybe the build quality, and lack of real (AF) matching teleconverters plays a role in the popularity of the lens.
