FS/FT- Canon 50mm F1.2L
 

posting this up for my gf, she is selling her 50mm f1.2L to downgrade into a more realistic kit. the lens is less than a year old, hardly used at all and in pretty much brand new condition.

cash price is 1400 firm, includes box/warranty card/lens bag/lens hood/ receipt etc.

looking to trade for anything FF compatible, so NO EF-S lenses pls. not super excited for anything tele right now as she just uses my 70-200 2.8 when the need arises.

mainly after:

17-40L
24-105L
24-70L
50 1.4
etc etc etc

photos/sample shots will come with serious interest, thanx!

danng, thats a expensive lens, why is it so much more then the 50mm 1.8?

^ I know eh? and it's only f/0.6 better than the f/1.8! :D
j/k, read up the 50mm f/1.2 and you'll know why

Hmmm...I've got a 17-40L and a 50 f1.4 I'd consider trading for that.

2 stops is a lot...

better build (the 1.8, as nice as it is, is a toy), and the bokeh/low-light sensitivity is unparalleled. The difference between my 1.4 and my old 1.8 is huge.

this is eaxtly the setup we're thinking. pm me and we can work out numbers.

Oh, yes it is. ;)

wow bump for a very very good lens

Ed, you got pm!

you took it a bit out of context...and deleted the first half of it :p Obviously I was comparing the Canon 1.2 to the 1.4 and 1.8...

Oh, for fuck sakes, didn't you or HyperREV notice the smiley emoticon in my post?? Why so serious? :(

I have used this lens before. Fucking amazing. I shot a bunch of photos on the beach at English bay at last year's fireworks.

I also used a smiley emoticon :thumbsup: :D

doesnt look like we'll be getting rid of this afterall :)
