I have mentioned to the list before, the 50/2 is too contrast for my taste
and three years ago $400 was a very good pirce (for seller) so I sold it for
other Zuikos. Now I started to think I need this high sharpness and high
contrast lens in some situation so I'm looking for one again (at
"reasonable" price of course ;-))

Can't remember the bokeh but most macro lenses has poorer bokeh than normal
one.
