@Lightshow: did you shoot wide open for that sample? it looks stunning.
I can get one here for merely 200 bucks, but I'm not sure if it's worth or not. I read mixed reviews on this lens, but seems like its f/1.2 is too soft. After seeing the photos here, I still can't decide. _________________

Thank you all for your suggestions, I will get there next month to test if it's good or not, it looks very good but somehow it has stayed there for years But seems like because in Korea not many people care about this lens, I found others with around $300 and only few is $500 (with full box and accessories)
Just checked it again, it's actually $250. I'm not sure if it has haze on the rear element or not.
They also have the f/1.4 for $10 less, this one looks much better

Hard to say if the 1.2 has fungus or haze.
@langstrum, it was WO or possibly one click down(Checked, it's at f1.4), mine doesn't have much if any glow wide open.
The 1.4 version is reputed to have very good quality, $240 is a fairly decent price.
The Nikkor 50/1.4 & 50/2 are nice too, I've been looking for one in great shape.
My Topcor-S 50/2 is currently my favorite RF 50. _________________ A Manual Focus Junky...

It's still be excellent at f/1.4 or f/1.8, I'm still looking for a lens like this.
I found some RF Nikkor 50/1.4 and Topcor 50/2 here as well, but they rate them much higher than Canon ($500 - 800), so I don't even dare thinking about buying them _________________

Canon LTM 50/1.2 c by unoh7, on Flickr
Canon LTM 50/1.2 by unoh7, on Flickr
Canon LTM 50/1.2 b by unoh7, on Flickr
This copy is not perfect, and was about 425USD But I like it.
Calibration is not great with M9, but I need to practice and get some shots anyway
If I'm not mistaken, 50,000 copies of this lens were produced! _________________ Making MFlenses safe for the letter *L* |

I recently made the same choice. Can't say I am disappointed.
However the money I saved didn't stay saved long. Instead it was invested (yea, like I said, invested
) in a Zeiss Ultron 1.8/50, which I still can't use because the adapter for my A7II is still coming from China. _________________ Steve

I went for a walk once comparing my LTM Canon 50/1.2 with Canon nFD 50/1.2 L and ...well...L was TECHNICALLY better I you would guess. I am keeping both
In some situations the LTM is unbeatable, but overall FD L is a king.

The 35/1.8 is a nice lens. Very small and quite sharp.
But what really stunned me is the Canon 135/3.5 that I just got in the mail today. This is the first photo I took with it.

Garth by unoh7, ISO 100, at 1/640, what was my aperture? At least the M9 makes a guess
DSC00915-2 by unoh7, on Flickr
Above you can see most of the frame is actually very good at f/8 but the edges really collapse, unlike the 1.4.
DSC00926-3 by unoh7, on Flickr
The 1.4 is cool WO, but does not do this LOL _________________ Making MFlenses safe for the letter *L* |
