I don't own either lens, but I do know how to surf the web:

At the techphoto site (http://www.techphoto.org/photo/equipment/canon/lens-spec.epl) 
the 1.2 gets lower ratings than the 1.8 from both the Japanese source and the French 
source.

However, at photodo (http://www.photodo.com/nav/prodindex.html) the 1.2 gets a score 
of 4.6 (out of 4.8) while the 1.8 gets a 4.1.

Besides weight, another thing to consider, of course, is price.  The 1.2 costs $1800 
while the 1.8 costs $385 (US dollars).  With the difference in price you can get an 
EOS 3 backup body plus quite a few meals or you can almost afford a 135/2 AND a 
200/2.8 ($1600 combined)
