If only it was the Lux\'s street price.
Yeah, the price is tough. I could understand if the 50/2 was the same price as the 50/1.4, since you\'re gaining some IQ and loosing a stop, but another few thousand bucks makes it tough to justify. That f2 performance certainly looks outrageous, though.
B&H Photo has the 50mm AA listed for $7195, That is quite a price for a normal lens.

Yeah, I basically only shoot normal lenses, so it would be right up my alley, and I\'d consider it if it was in the realm of the 50 Summilux in price, but $7K is steep. It does look to be a world beating lens, though, so I\'m sure it will sell well.
