Auto-focus alternative to lens
link
but I don't know if that is a typical price or whether they are generally cheaper than that (someone here will know)... worth a browse on ebay or in online shops' second hand sections....
Hope that helps

Its a bit slower but have you thought about the Pentax-DA 35mm F2.4 AL , its a very cheap lens brand new , think i paid £115 plus its very good!
I find 35mm a much more usable focal length myself and use my FA35 much more than my FA50...
That said... Smeggypants and obione are right... FA50 is a quality piece of glass that easily keeps its place in my bag...
