I think they are quite rare but probably not worth a huge amount.
I've got one on the 50mm on my Spotmatic, mainly as a period piece and I haven't tried putting it on a more modern lens.

I believe you maybe right, The one I was looking at didn't have the A setting but I believe it was a Nikon mount and they may not utilise an A on the aperture ring.
I know I'm right because I have one

BTW, the Nikon mount ones are easy to spot because they have the Nikon "Rabbit Ears" on the Aperture ring.
Voigtlander also helpfully put the mount name on the underside of the ring.

All the Voigtlander SL lenses in PK mount have the 'A' position (and the focus and aperture rings move in the "correct" direction).

The SL lenses are designed and manufactured by Cosina and some (eg the 75mm and 90mm) are variations on the existing Voigtlander Rangefinder lenses.

Can I request this one?

Sounds like it would go with my early Pentax collection!

Thanks,

I have both and for me it's no contest, the FA43 every time.

The DA40 is sharper in the corners at wide apertures and must be Pentax's fastest focussing lens, but the FA43 has a touch of "magic"; I just love the images from this lens
