The F and A versions seem to be the same, optically. The FA version is different and allegedly (from all users I've spoken with!) superior.Yes. I just took a look at Boz's site (thanks, Boz), and - sure enuf - the FA is a different critter. Hmmm...
For one thing, the FA is an "AL" lens (ie, has an aspheric element), and the A and F are not. That in and of itself has to indicate a different optical formula, for better or worse. ;)
