Cameron,
I'm one of those guys who saw great results from the FA*24 on film.
I was worried about the lens until I saw Stan using it on his digital
body in one of the photos posted to the list. That's good enough for
me.
And I have yet to see bad digital results from it.
Perhaps I'll run some tests

I think you need to be cautious about putting down others for their
findings. I do know how to use wide angles, as well as that lens,
having owned two of them. My film experience was very good. My
digital experience was not.

I find it hard to believe that people have such mixed feelings about
this lens - either there are some batch to batch discrepancies (highly
unlikely), or (more likely) some of the posters really don't know what
they are talking about, and just find they aren't getting the results
