"To whom is this targeted? Self-congratulatory or rubbing something into someone's face? I get that you've owned both (I've shot both, the f1.2 pretty extensively, the f1.8 barely at all), but were you feeling oppressed by a group of f1.8 owners or something?"

Wow! I never intended my comment to be read with such malice, just enthusiasm. So I guess I'm a bit taken aback here. The comment you refer to addresses the reasons I chose not to buy the 1.2 early on, and were the things that kept me from buying one all this time. I would hope my words might prompt someone else who is sitting on the fence to go out and give the lens a shot.
