"Hey E,

How does the BP 50 Summilux "handle differently" than the current 50f1.4? I 
have yet to have received one of these and I only touched it for a moment at 
Photokina...but it sure looked just about the same???

Does it have a different focus ring?

Hey (hay) is for horses...

Yes, different, the old-style scalloped focus ring gives a much nicer grip.
