If the used f1.4/50mm A's are now up to $100, it might be worth your dough
now to buy new. A new FA 1.4/50 can be bought currently for about $179 (less
shipping) from both KEH and B&H, and Adorama might even be a few bucks
cheaper...
And of course, the FA 1.7/50 goes new for somewhere around $80, which is
gotta' be the best new lens bargain available anywhere!
