So...still not enough info...
I'll say the Auto Sears 55mm f/1.4 in M42 mount (made by Rikenon aka Ricoh). I have one I'll be putting up for sale...but I'm keeping one. It's the only lens I'm keeping my M42 to PK adapter for, if that says anything
I think he meant that K50/1.2 is cheaper than it's A cousin, not that f1.2s are cheaper than f1.4s.
To OP,
as mentioned above, F50/1.7 is a freat AF 50. Really, really nice lens. I have one and as a matter of fact I may be selling it soon. Reason is that I just got K55/1.8 and I like it more. It has nicer (warmer) tone and better (smoother) bokeh IMO. I really do appreciate the AF and AE on F50 but I don't shoot so much 50s to keep 2 (though I may keep both, really haven't decided yet).
Anyway, if u don't mind MF and lacking f stop info in VF and exif, and stop down metering, I can only recomend K55.
