I have one. it is very sharp, heavy, ugly design with clamp that look like a big pimple.
Have you seen the
50mm lens club pages yet? Check it out if you haven't seen it yet. A lot of sample images there. Most of them are labeled with lens name. I got images of my ugly FA50 macro there too.
I also have an old + way way cheaper M50 f1.7. It is very sharp too.
for 2 of my 50; anything from f4 to 10 are equally sharp at infinity focus which is what I always using them for.
If I need speed + compact size it will be M50 f1.7.
If I need Macro and or nice starburst + in a mood of working out it will be the FA50 macro.
You really don't have to think too much too long, just close your eyes and pick one! It is a lot of good 50 out there, it will be hard to miss getting a good 50mm. The question might be; how much you want to pay?
