What? Sharp?


It is somewhat sharp, considering it's f1,0... Contrast wide open isn't really great and CA is present. Although the new 50mm f1,2 isn't flawless regarding CAs either. I am a little disappointed by the bokeh I must say. If you know the 85mm f1,2, and had the 50mm f1,2 for a quick test - the difference isn't really big.


I can't comment on picture quality when stopped down tho. From what I've heard (from my local photoshop) , it's supposed to be so-so at best.


I also have the 85mm f1,2 and love it's quality. The 50mm is the same size.


Honestly, I'd much rather get the 50 f1,2 *new* than the 50 f1,0 used for a considerably higher price... The difference in sharpness wide-open is dramatic compared to the 50 f1,2 - and the 50 f1,2 has decent color and contrast wide open. I honestly don't think the difference in speed f1,2 <-> f1,0 is dramatic...


Nice collectible lens though!
