Judging from the 50mm 1L one can easily guess size and weight if not the price!

Dear my friend tron.
Just $ 2000 US Dollars for spare part for this Broken Lens----Well, Our dear Friend Mr. Mackguyver can fix this broken lens and use as the Lens to shoot the stars 10 life years from earth.
Have a great day.

Dear friend Surapon. So far, no manufacturer dared make an autofocus lens F0.95 and should remain so for a long time. The depth of field was so shallow that the current focus system simply does not have accuracy enough to achieve consistent results. If there was a autofucus F0.95 lens would be an avalanche of lens returns to calibrate, as there is no work accurately in several different bodies. Zeiss makes F0.95 lens with manual focus only, and thus when the focus wrong, guilt is not the lens but the photographer.

This is a convenient way for the manufacturer to absolve themselves of responsibility for unavoidable errors of focus. Furthermore, sharpness and contrast are very bad with the lens wide open, and F1.4 are just mediocre. The bokeh is very strange and uneven, with muddy corners and without contrast.

At the time of black and white film these deficiencies were acceptable because there was no higher than ISO 1600, but today the 20 megapixel cameras make it obvious weaknesses of such a lens.

Good Late afternoon in North Carolina, USA, to my dear Teacher Mr. ajfotofilmagem.
THANKSSSS you , sir for the great Infor, that I never know before, That why Canon EF 85 mm F/ 1.2 L MK II is so slow in AF, And All Manual focus for The BIG/ Giant Lenses that use for looking to the stars/ Universe----That Why.
No more my day dream about EF Lens = F/ 1.0 Any more.

Ha, Ha, Ha, " and thus when the focus wrong, guilt is not the lens but the photographer. "-----We have to blame our self, Not the High cost Lens.
Have a great Week , Sir.

It may be cheaper than Zeiss F0.95 but is still manual focus only. ::) Who knows if in the future Canon release QUAD PIXEL AF sistem, we'll see F0.95 AF lens. :P But, as you can not cheat the laws of physics, to have decent image quality, and not just a crazy blur, this lens would be bigger and heavier than the huge Zeiss Otus 55mm F1.4. :o :o :o And the price? I do not dare to imagine. :-X

I remember that lens when it came out, it went with the Canon 7 series rangefinder body, and, at first, it looked fantastic. It was sold as being for newspaper photographers to allow shooting in low light. Then I read the reviews, and they were not very good. A guy who sat next to me at work bought the camera and lens, he might still have it, I haven't talked to him since I retired in 1998.
