(And I know they are different focal lengths so I guess I'm asking about IQ, handling, focus speed, etc.)
Hi. I have both and to tell you the truth I can not find the FA43 being so much better than FA35, in fact this one is always being compared with the great FA31 so thats a good point. I would say FA35 is sharper than FA43 outdoors, under direct sunlight (in my case) but I find FA43 having better IQ and sharpness indoors, excellent for portraits!
FA43 has some kind of magic and obviously construction is waaaay better than FA35, but I think FA35 has faster focus speed.
I hope that helps.
