Summary: 


Would all of those people out there who said that they heard bad things
about the Nikon FE-2 from the pros please elaborate ? What do they say is
wrong with it ?

I own an FE-2 which has been pretty good to me so far. I am presently
buying an F3 and have considered selling the FE-2 and buying an FA but
the excessive amount of electronics on it, frankly turns me off.

I rarely use a camera on auto exposure mode; I shoot a lot of K64 and 
bracket extensively; program mode on the FA has intrigued me for use in 
"tricky" situations (???). 

Do you know of any difference in the center-weighed exposure metering 
system between the two (i.e.: is FA more accurate ?) disregarding of course 
the AMP metering for this purpose.

I also own the following Nikkor lenses: 24mm f2, 50mm f1.4, 105mm f2.8
Micro and 180mm f2.8 ED.

Any comments on all of the above would be very much appreciated.

Cheers,
