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 ment

No that;s the stop down lever. The aperture simulator is a resistor and pin that transfers the set aperture on a lens to the camera body for wide open metering. Desjardins, Steve wrote: It was, essentially, a little doohickey inside the body end of the lens mount that pressed a tiny pin on t
