I asked this question several weeks ago and the consensus was that the
newer, MC 50/1.2 was a lot better. I consequently bought one for $250,
which seemed to be the average price from the 4 U.S.-based dealers that had
them in stock when I went looking. The average of the two Ebay sales I
have on my history page
(http://www.skipwilliams.com/Zuiko_Ebay_History.htm) was $237, but I don't
know the condition of those lenses.
I like the lens, but I don't have a 55/1.2 for comparison.

Just thought I'd use the list's collective wisdom: Is the 50/1.2 really
vastly superior to the 55/1.2? If so, how?
I have the 55/1.2 and am being offered the 50/1.2 at a
not-completely-outrageous price; should I snap? What is the usual price for
a lens in 9+ condition?
Thanks,
