    Canon gear:

    planning on a new 580exII and a 430 exII for some "slave" work

    also want to ditch the 50mm 1.8 for a 50mm 1.4 (focuses faster and better build)

    oh there is so much that I want to buy... but can't

    just get the 1.2. its only 1100 more than your already pricey upgrade.

    but srsly the 1.4 is pretty nice.

    Isn't the 1.2 manual focus only?

    the 1.4 is pretty nice... shoots about the same as the 1.8 image wise. it just is more solid, a little bigger, faster on the focus, and costs $250 more. both are cheep lenses but I cannot bring myself to buy the 1.2L... that is until I run out of other equipment to buy then I might budge a bit
