Hi,
I grew up shooting my K1000 which I still own, but have been on digital for an extended period of time. I currently have the SMC Pentax-A 50mm f/2 but wanted to pick up one of the Three Amigos – The FA Limited 43mm.
In my searches it looks like B&H has them but the description says "Based on the FA Limited Lens series, renowned for their meticulous attention in every detail..."
I would imagine this is a newly manufactured lens and is not one of the original FA Limited lens's that are sought after.
My question is how do I recognize an original, where is the best place to find one, and what price am I looking at?
I have been primarily photographing nature for the past 10 years but want to get back to my roots with film and "non-nature" work. I'll be heading to NYC in a few weeks and would love to bring my K1000 with a nice lens to go along with the rolls of film that have been stored in an attic for the past 20 years.
