Originally posted by maxfield_photo Does anyone own both of these lenses? Can anyone verify if the DFA* lens hood will fit on the FA* lens? The DFA hood is the PH-RBM77, while the FA hood is the PH-RBC77, so I figured there might be chance that it would fit, and thus solve one of the major shortcomings of the FA* lens. I'm carefully considering both lenses, but I really don't relish the thought of the reversed zoom and focus rings on the modern lens.
It doesn't fit. In any case, in my opinion the image quality of the D FA* is so far ahead of the FA* that it's a no-brainer, unless you want a more compact lens, of course.
