Absolutely!
Thank you Moose for a great and exhaustive coverage of OM standard
lenses. I can see clearly that I have to try the 55/1.2, and I might even
explain why to my wife! :-) The problem is, I can also see that I have to
try a 50/1.2. (sigh!) And Schnooz has just convinced me that I need the
StopClock Professional in stead of the lowlier (and of course cheaper)
Analyser Pro (deep sigh!) which will benefit my bank account even less.
Just one little question is lingering in my mind: How can I tell the
difference between the two versions of the 55/1.2? Is it the yellow glass
one should look for? What colour does the non-radioactive glass have?

Yeah, no kidding. Thanks Moose. FWIW, my 50mm f1.8 is an MC version,
serial #2885413. It has never exactly knocked me out, but it's not a bad
lens at all, either. I was mainly just wondering if the difference between
a 1.8 and a 1.2 was worth pursuing for limited-light shooting, but Moose
has this exchange down to a dissertation. ;-)

Thank you for an outstandingly helpful distillation of datat and translation
of information into wise counsel (not that it is out of character) in a form
which I haven't seen before. Bravo.
