Yes, you are wrong. Photodo tests a hell lot more than just one value, as you stated earlier! Where did you get that idea? Based on ebay prices, the F 1.4/50mm is more expensive used than the FA version. Photodo is only PARTLY responsible for this. The fact that this lens was only produced for a couple of years also makes it rather rare compared to the 12-13 years of producing the FA version. Regards
