Just to keep things straight, a quote from Tom Scales in response to my question about a 50/1.4 that he was selling:

"Yes, they did change the formula, but oddly they did it right before they
dropped the MC.  Those of us on the OM Mailing list have really tried to
figure out the exact break point, but it looks to be right at 1,085,000 or
so.  A little below the 1,1 mark."

Thus, the latest, best version doesn't start at 1,000,000, but a little higher.

Agree, the 50/1.2 is a different lens altogether. I also think the
50/1.4 SN<1,000,000 is quite different than the 50/1.4 SN>1,000,000.
Perhaps we are splitting hairs. I will have to try them all out on
suitable subjects. Now I have a project for myself. I would even opt
for another 50mm ADITL shoot.
