The f1 can create 'dreamier' images, the f0.95 is a bit harsher. I read a 
few years back about someone who had both; he used the f0.95 if he was going 
somewhere and had to get a photo (stopped down it is almost as good as any 
Leica 50mm) but used the f1 in his own time for personal images. The colours 
from the f0.95 and gorgeous but the f1 is also significantly smaller and 
lighter!

Or maybe it's just nostalgia...

Even if it's purely emotional, I just can't justify having something this 
expensive that makes me feel guilty not loving it.
