Alas, the only f/1.4 normal lenses i have are Minolta and there is a loss of image quality or infinity focus with the adapters for Pentax bodies. My sister had a Pentax 50mm f/1.4 lens but she gave the body and lens away to a friend long before I acquired a Pentax DSLR. I have the box for the lens which has a list price sticker of $145. I heard these one person paid $395 for one. Crazy!
Bwahahaha! Now you have to get a 58/55/50mm f/1.2 lens. The most sought after is the Minolta 58mm f/1.2 MC Rokkor-PG which is renown for its creamy bokeh. The 50mm f/1.2 is sharper but the bokeh is inferior.

Since the image register is 0.2-0.5mm difference don't expect to find a cheap glassless adapter to use a Minolta MD mount lens on your Canon EF mount bodies. There are several sources that will sell or install a precision replacement mount. These are reversible and the original Minolta mount can be reinstalled. You can also get a replacement mount for the Canon body but then you could only use Minolta lenses unless to reinstall the Canon mount. Minolta lenses should not be used on the full-frame Canon bodies as the mirror will strike the rear elements of the lens. You could shave down the mirror.

Some other Holy Grail lens in the Minolta pantheon are the 35mm f/2.8 Shift CA Rokkor and the 24mm f/2.8 MC VFC Rokkor.
Hope you win big in a lottery/sweepstakes so you can afford these lenses.
