Well, mine works. I bought the lens mint but minus the switch, then replaced the missing parts with spares from a seriously mangled example that I'd previously bought intending to repair (then found that FA lenses aren't as simple and solid as K or M lenses!) I managed to reattach it with a tiny dab of gel superglue, you can't see any difference and it doesn't seem to have harmed the lens. Everything lights up and works. The powered zoom part works on some of the DSLRs, minus the special effects.
I was wondering how the portrait mode was supposed to work, having figured out the image size tracking and zoom clip features. Will have a play and see what happens.
