I sold the FA50 and kept the DA40. No regrets and never looked back.
I found the FA50 way too soft at f1.4 so I replaced it with the Sigma 30mm f1.4. In addition to being a more useful/wider focal length, the Sigma blew the FA50 out of the water.
I sold my FA50 because I the focal length is not what i want.
I tried a sigma30 f1.4 on a apsc Canon, but the MFD is way too long for a 30mm.
so my FA35 blew the water of both FA50 and sigma30.
