Think 50mm is 50mm but then i suppose there will be a pedant somewhere with an answer as to why your 50mm is disallowed

Oh jigs, we need a working party set up to discuss Alans 50 mm 1.7 thing
1. Is it effectively cheating? 2. 1.7mm...hmmm, so whits wrong with 1.4?  might give the photies a slightly different look! 
3. Diz it fit on a sooper digital camera?...if not Na Na Na Na
4. Do ye get that wonderful bokeh? 
5. And...when you are out and about do you pretend to onlookers it's a NIFTY FIFTY? ....you do realise there is definitely a different way to pose with a NIFTY
So after discussion, coffee, and more pish talk...should it be allowed...colleagues? |

The 1.4 is a couple of hundred pounds dearer.
Nice bokeh, lovley Minolta colours and works perfectly on my DSLR
