Hoops, you're going to fall in love with that FA* lens - mine is almost permanently attached to the camera.
I think you may be right, I have the FA20-35 as well but the FA* just has something about it based on my first few shots.
I have the FA43 and FA135, and plan to buy a FA*85 in the coming month(s) to replace my K85 f1.8, so will be ready for the FF. I want to try the FA*24 on the MZ-S too.
My copy is mint, and I mean mint, its also very sharp in the centre wide open, borders (as to be expected) don't sharpen up until f5.6 and above but that's not really what this lens is about, IMO.
Not the best photo technically but I like the 3D effect, shooting wide open helps but very minimal PP on this one, great contrast out of the camera!
