To be honest your current A50/1.7 would probably be better for macro work as the slower 50's tend to have a flatter field of focus. The easiest way to convert it to macro use would be with a set of extension tubes (that goes for either the A or the FA).
Was thinking hefty1 of getting some tubes.If i did use em with the A f1.7 lens how close would be close.

Never used macro tubes please excuse the greeness

Hi all was wondering about the macro capabilities of this lens if any?


http://www.srsmicrosystems.co.uk/123/Pentax-smc-FA-50mm-f1-4-Lens.html

I would primarily be using it for macro work.Flower close ups and the like.

Thanks for any help!

It's a good deal for a starter lens.Think of it as sigma's own kit lens
