My 50mm f/1.7 is my favourite lens, but I'd love to try a 1.4 or even a 1.2,

But the prices! I have no use for an A-model lens, but even so, the prices for 
used lenses are shocking, with the 1.2 models quite extraordinary.

Were these much more expensive when they were new, or are they just more rare?


They were more expensive (especially the f/1.2 versions) and consequently much rarer, as more people bought zooms than upgraded 50mm lenses.
