Not original, this is attributed to Geoff who has two kids and therefore vast resources. Hope this helps.

From the user reviews I've read, it sounds like the focus throw is not quite as long on the 0.95, which is something I think I'd appreciate. Really, though, the bottom line for me is that never in my lifetime would I be able to buy an $11,000 lens. The F1 and 0.95 have different looks, but I think both are lovely and if my kid needed a kidney I could get closer to meeting the co-pay selling an F.95 than an F1.
