Any ideas about that one?

It is considered to be one of the best superfast lenses. It'd better be, at this price!
There also has been an Anniversary Edition of this lens, AFAIK.

If you buy it, I'd love to see some shots. Very Happy

This is certainly one of the best
It is a collector item, too much $ for the street
samples
also better ask Koji, he have this lens
koji comparing 5 x 50 1.2

Mine...



Beautiful colour rendition might be slightly lost on today's dSLR
comparing with film IMHO. We may need a far better dSLR.
(I paid 350,000 Yen for a brand new one, today's price is insane.)

Luxury lens, out of my reach, if you can afford it then you should go for it.
