Question Lens Serial Number Listing

Could you also add the 645 A 2.8/55, if this makes sense for such an old lens?
You have the FA (with a picture of the A version) and the D-FA versions currently only afaics.

Seems the existing entry was simply mislabeled, as there never was a FA 55mm. I've corrected it:

Hi Adam

Thanks. That would explain why I never saw an FA55, but did not really look for one either.
