For whole body/three-quarter portraits, the FA 31 does a magnificent job and rendering subjects even in the toughest of conditions:

A few years ago on 4th of July. K10D, SMC-M 50mm F1.4 at 1.4, ISO 1600, a bit noisey, but I still like it....

I've posted some of these elsewhere on the forum.

Fungusy FA50 f/1.7

Rokinon 85 f/1.4 @1.4

Sears 50 f/1.7 @1.7

M 200 f/4 @f/4, I think.

Great idea for a thread! Here are a few:

K200D, FA77

K200D S-M-C Takumar 135 f/2.5 accidentally underexposed by about 3 stops and brought up in post.

Not a great shot but it represents a new direction for me: Pentax 67 medium format film camera with the 67 90mm f/2.8 lens, i missed the focus but I still like it:
