I am SO tempted to buy a Voigtlander NOKTON classic 40mm F1.4 SC. There's one on the bay in the UK and it is screaming 'buy me buy me' but i don't know if i should. I have seen some examples on Flickr and the seller sent me one which looks spot on. It will be for my GF1. At the mo the lens is £265 with just a few hours to go.

Should i???? Anyone know the quality?

There's also a super wide 12mm version which looks good and may be a little cheaper. Problem with this is that it's f5.6 so would only suit Landscape/ tripod work or bright light situations.
