[QUOTE="SkvLTD, post: 434269, member: 12855"] Firstly, ~300 if you ebay like a sniper. Differences are simple as well - 1.2 is magic and 1/2 sheet of paper focusing plane; 1.4 and onwards is 2-sheets of paper focusing plane without the magic. In all honesty, besides being tack-sharp around f/2, 1.2 is all about the extremely creamy bokeh it offers. Specialty lens given modern ISO capabilities. In my current arsenal, it's my BEST sub-70mm lens and thus it surprisingly gets quite a bit of use, but for more standard applications. Lack of AF is a sad song, but to me the bling factor of it is worth it since I generally don't shoot fast-moving subjects with primes. [/QUOTE]
