Had one (Pentax). Absolutely hated how soft it was wide open. Sold it to pay for other purchases. The market on these is Stupid High right now. If another one dropped into my lap, I'd probably do it again.
Have a Canon FL 50mm f1.2 arriving tomorrow. It is a darn good lens according to the Test Reports, particularly if you are just using the center of the image circle. Plan to sell it to an NEX or GXR or 4/3 user. : ) Darren Addy Kearney, Nebraska On Thu, Feb 9, 2012 at 2:02 PM, John Celio <[email protected]> wrote: > I have an A 50mm 1.2 sitting around collecting dust.
