I know, it's a portrait lens, but I like the focal range for streets (and travel). I have the Rokinon 85/1.4--a superb lens, manual focus isn't a problem with trap focus, but it's heavy. If the Rokinon were 250 grams lighter, it would be perfect for me. When travelling I may walk for 10 hours to visit a new city: the Rokinon is just too heavy to lug around for a day.
Before the price increase I would have got the DA70 (I didn't have the money a few months ago...) Now it seems to make more sense to get the FA77. However, the AF does not excel, I hear. Do you think FA77's AF is ok (even if not ideal) for streets? How does it compare to FA50/1.4 in this respect? (A comparison would be useful, because I had the FA50.) Your answers are greatly apprecoated!
