Yep. The FA645 45-85/4.5. This lens that I have loaned from Pentax is simply 
extraordinarily sharp. A wonderful optic! I highly recommend this lens paired with the 
new FA645 35/3.5 if you can mange the not insubstantial weight. I haven't used the 
35mm but Popular Photography says it pushes the limits for medium format wide angles. 
It outperformes the Carl Zeiss 35mm. Although Popular Photography and tests in general 
should be taken with necessary scepticism, I think it is safe to conclude that it is 
another great lens.

I've also extensively used the FA645 150-300/5.6 ED IF another superb optics at all 
apertures and focal lenghts. Wonderful built quality too. I'm impressed with the 
quality when using the S82 close-up lens as well. A wonderful all round telephoto lens 
and great "macro lens" with useful working distance. 

If you can take the 3,6kg's weight of the 645NII, 35/3,5, 45-85/4.5 and the 
150-300/5.6 ED IF then you have wonderful flexible and sharp medium form at outfit. 
Truly brilliant.
