After looking at the marvelous photos of this thread, I have convinced myself to get one for my Leica. Before going out buying one could you please advice me what could be considered a reasonable price for that lens?

on ebay lately there are quite a few sellers from Japan who offer cheaper prices than these LTM lenses used to sell for 2 or 3 years ago and there are very few, if at all, sellers that are not Japanese. The 1.4/50 roughly starts from 150 usd lens only and goes up to abt. 300 usd incl. caps and hood + shipping, around 200 should buy you a good user copy. Most European buyers have to add minimum 20% import on lens + sending price, not sure about Greek customs.

Great, that is well within my budget and even taxed through customs I can afford it. The customs tax will be more or less the same as in the other EU countries.

Love the render from your lens!
Your 50/1.4 is type I or type II?

I've noticed that the lenses that once sold to Japan a few years back are now flowing the other way.

Leica M240 with Canon 50/1.4, at F2.0 (I think).

Probably going to regret selling this one but... so many 50's.
Always wanted to try out an early Serenar 50/1.5.
Acros 100 in D-76.

Nice images, bakemono. And welcome to RFF. Keep posting -- especially photos!
The Canon 50/1.4 is indeed a fine lens. I've never liked it ergonomically, but somehow I get a higher percentage of keepers than normal for me.

I'm liking your Canon 50/1.4 shots Helen. I think it does very well into the light as you've shown with your semi-silhouetted shot. Here's my contribution against the low winter sun recently - M3 50 Canon at f5.6, Delta 100 in ID-11
