I have an MD 50/1.7, which is very sharp when given the opportunity to prove itself. If I were to get another normal lens, I think that I might skip over the 50/1.4, which is only half a stop faster, and go for the MD 50/1.2. Has anyone used it? How bad are the aberrations wide open, and how far does one have to stop down to get rid of them?
