I think this lens is not as much about focal length and max aperture as it is about rendition. If the rendition is superior, I think you will find many uses for it that you probably would not have thought of beforehand.

I agree - and to date the sample images from the new 50mm are making me wish I could afford it and I dont shoot 50mm. C'mon guys - do you not "see" the IQ of this lens - I cant wait to see more images from it

cheers
