Sony FE 50/1.2 versus 50/1.4 bokeh

[RE Alpha]

There are many threads on the new 50/1.4 and comparisons with the 50/1.2. However, I have seen very few comparisons that delve into the quality and differences of the bokeh between these lenses. Is there already anyone here who actually did so?

Bokeh is very similar - just less DOF at F1.2 as expected.

Thanks a lot Brian. Both look beautiful to me. How are lights in the background portrayed ?

I’m travelling at the moment, so I left both 50’s behind (I took the 55 f1.8 to save weight). I bought the f1.4 to save a bit of weight and also the DOF differences are infinitesimal to say the least. I will be selling the f1.2 upon my return. Both lenses are stellar, but having two is a bit much, even for a gearhead like me.
