Maybe that is the reason why B&H has 4 x 55mm Macro, but only one 50mm f/1.4.

I dunno how much is the 50mm f/1.4 AIS but if the D series fits I think you are better off with a used 50mm f/1.4D for just about $200++ or so... this is easier to resell

So, I just need to be bit more patient, and get the AF used one then. the 50 1.2 is unique but not very sharp at 1.2. Pretty bokeh though   .. It's Permie's world, we just live in it! ~CDS
