Frank,
The issue in the Canon AF system is that the 1.8 version is built somewhat
better than the toys given away free at MacDonalds; and the 1.4 version
while the build quality is better the performance at 1.4 to 2 leaves a lot
to be desired.  Therefore, if you use the 50mm focal length a lot the only
real choice if you shoot near wide open is the 1.2 version.
