Hello, I'm sort of a luddite because the latest version I own is the A50/1.4. If I were to keep just one it would be the Super- Multi-Coated Takumar 50/1.4 for overall sharpness, contrast, and by far the best build quality. For best contrast I'd pick the A50/1.4, but it is the softest of the my 1.4's wide open. If I could never have a Super-Multi-Coated Takumar 50/1.4, I'd settle for the SMCP 50/1.4, as it is the closest thing to it, but the SMCP 50/1.2 is still better at f1.2 and does have great contrast also. I love em all ;)
