Searched for the clubs and found no regular FA club, so I open this thread, why not?

Please try to post picture(s) which has a good value for you and informative for the others, ie, greatest picture taken with the lens, resolution test, bokeh test, aberration test (PF, optic aberration etc.), color rendering, contrast, you name it.
Intact EXIF's will help to people out a lot for sure.

Glass picture is:
FA 100-300mm f4.7-5.8 ISO 1600 f/5.6, just resized, nothing else.

Roof Picture is same lens, ISO 400 f/8, just cropped&resized.

EXIF's are intact

Are FA J lenses allowed? I can borrow FA J 75-300 from someone and maybe get a decent shot or two.

Hello.

I feel like FAJ's are different story, but it's the participants call.

In fact Un-Limited FA's should be separated as FA primes and FA zooms but since there is not much posting, it should stay this way. Anyway why don't you open a brand new FAJ thread or just post FAJ pics if you feel like so.

Pentax PZ-10 + FA 80-200/4.7-5.6 + Kodachrome 64
(Yeah, I know, cheap camera, cheap lens, great film, but when I got the film it was the only camera I had avaliable and it has great metering)

OK,

I'll play this one. The only FA lens I own is FA135/2.8. Haven't shot too much with it yet, but here are some examples:

Hope I'll get some more/better shots later

I got lucky,
found one just few weeks back for pretty unbelievable £119. There is a little scratch on front element, but still the lens is fantastic...

It's a good idea, me thinks.

I'm new here, but it sounds like a good idea to me also.

Anyway, two more, this time with the FA 50/1.4 on K110D

That's a very nice price indeed. Too bad you like it, I was hoping to buy it from you
