Sorry to start another 50mm thread.  I know this has been discussed in the 
past, but I'm still unsure if most users consider the f/1.2 lens to be worth 
the substantial extra cost over the f/1.4 and f/1.8, and why.  Having not 
found a used f/1.2, I may need to  shell out $350 for a new one.  The various 
web-listed lens tests do not incontrovertibly place the f/1.2 on a higher 
level resolution-wise, but some people have commented about less-quantifiable 
variables (flavor, bokeh, etc.).  I want the best lens from wide-open to 
f/5.6.
