You've been shooting FF with 50/1.8, you think 50/1.4 is sharp wide open, and you believe 50/1.2 is a "hype". And you write lens reviews. Great. I love this forum...
Agree that these user contributed reviews are mostly to be considered gear fanatics reassurance to themselves that they made wise choices.
I wound up with the 50/1.4 as a throw in when I bought my 5D3 with 24-70II. I won't splurge on a 50/1.2 just yet since I believe Canon will release a 50 IS soon. Hopefully they will decide to keep the 1.4 aperture. If they don't then the new 55/1.4 from Zeiss is appealing.
But yes the 50/1.4 works but is really not one of Canons best products. Better than the 50/1.8 yes but leagues from the 50/1.2 IMO.
