The 50/1.2 Canon is one of the few arguments why I'm still using rangefinder/LTM/M-mount gear. The lens is fast, has an unique old fashioned signature, and stopped down it's sharper than it's reputation. Got the 35/2 LTM Canon past week and am also very plased with this one. It's almost as compact as my 35 Color Skopar P1 but 2/3 of a stop faster. Similar old fashioned look. If it would have a red dot on one would speak about "glow"...
