   Hi @B2377, it's this one: www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/7021056.htm - a great lens I've had for 20 years. My FA, unfortunately, is not so great, as its lightmeter is bust, the ISO ring is jammed and the focusing screen is scratched and marred. I still use it now and then in fully manual mode, though.

   Sweet lens! Is the focusing screen in your FA interchangeable like my F3? I have a K screen that's a little scuffed up and there's dirt in the split-window rangefinder in the center that I can't get out, so I know that feel.

   @b2377 Yes, it's got a removable Type K screen. Given the cost of replacing it, I can live with a few scuffs and scratches.

   @buckshot yeah, same here. As my grandfather would say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!
