Sonny,
Speed you can have, just open you wallet and empty out many Lincolns and
Grants.  We have a very useable 35 F1.2 and a superb 28 F2.  Heck, with a FD
to M adapter we even have a 24 F1.4 of very good quality.  I just don't
relish the thought of employing a focus puller as I zone focus 2 feet at 1.4.
:)
