Sorry there, I just realised you posted a question in DPR regarding A* 85mm

My short experience with this lens is troubled by its PF with daylight protraits and the bokeh against bright background turned out chalky very often. Especially with yellow colour.

I did not have it for long and the lens was an item off ebay from Poland for 650 US 2 years ago. I sold it off Australian Trading Post for a good price.

Fa 85 has good contrast comparing to A* 85 but shadow details are rendered poorly and skin tone are not as good.
