DA 70mm vs. FA 77mm, January 10, 2008 By This review is from: Pentax 70mm f/2.4 DA Limited Lens for Pentax and Samsung Digital SLR Cameras (Electronics) A lot of people have a tough time choosing between DA 70mm Limited and the FA 77mm Limited. Both lenses have their merits, but I ended up going with the DA 70mm for a few reasons...
DA 70mm pros:
+ Much faster autofocus.
+ Much less CA (chromatic aberrations) and purple fringing.
+ Much cheaper.
+ Still works on film bodies, but you need a body that supports aperture controls.
+ Eolake points out in the comments that the DA 70mm is much more compact than the FA 77mm.
+ Lijia Zhang points out in the comments that the DA 70mm also supports Quick-Shift focusing.
FA 77mm pros:
+ About 1 stop faster (f/1.8 vs f/2.4).
+ Has an aperture ring so it works on all Pentax 35mm film bodies as well as digital.
+ General consensus that the bokeh is better.
+ Slightly longer reach.
Both lenses are sharp and render images beautifully, so as you can see, it really depends on what you want from the lens.

This is the first lens I used that really shows of the K20D's capabilities, even the old faithful 50mm does not render as well nor is as sharp over all ( edge to edge ). This lens is Very sharp wide open edge to edge right to F16, great contrast, I even compared it's sharpness to the Sigma 70mm macro and at normal distances it beats the macro for sharpness and contrast and has much better bokeh.
The lens is small and light and surprisingly feels great when mounted on camera, the quick shift focusing ring is something I wish the older Fa limited lenses had so you can manual focus at anytime.
Af speed is fast, this is the fastest Pentax lens I had used until the DA 40mm limited and now newer sdm/hsm lenses, yes it is a little noisy but not so bad, it focuses with zest and lets you know it. I did have to adjust the AF on the... Read more

The speed is decent enough at f2.4 and the autofocus works fast with the K100D. Apart from film size advantages, one of the reasons medium format is such a good portrait format has to do with the 'normal' lens being in the 70-85mm zone. You get just the right perspective and DOF.
This lens is good to use across the room, as you can concentrate on one or two people at a time. On digital the detail and color resolution is very natural, not over done as with some. The smooth transition to really good bokeh is another advantage.
Even though Pentax does not recommend the DA lenses for film bodies, I tried it out with good results on a ZX-10 camera. No vignetting and decent sharpness across the field. There is no aperture ring on the lens, so you'd need a body that works with that.
Overall I recommend this lens as an excellent optic, well made and compact.
