I am looking for a POTN member in Tucson, or the surrounding areas, even Phoenix, that has an EF 50mm f/1.2 and/or the nifty 50 that I might borrow for about 1 hour to take some test shots. Obviously if you are in Phoenix it wil take longer than an hour.

I have finally decided to do some of my own tests and answer the question once and for all, and post the results obviously, regarding the IQ of all the 50 mm Canon EF lenses. This would include the 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.8 and 2.5. I need to get copies of the 50's I don't have. These tests would involve test charts as well as getting out into the field, perhaps the zoo and taking real world shots under real world conditions.

TIA
