There were 2 longer threads 8-10 days ago in Leica Digests 158-160, 
incl a comparison between the 1.2/50 and 1/50 Noctilux,.

Additionally, Erwin Puts and Hans Pahlen comment both version on their
web sites. 

The 1.2/50 is a collector's item, about USD 5.000. 

Here in Germany, the prize is for a 1/50 from the eraly 80ies is around
DM 2.500, about USD 1.500.
