I'd say it's pretty close to the EF 50/1.2L. At least it doesn't have the
focus-shift issue, and is about 1/3 the price.
As for shallow DOF, an ~f/2.5 medium format lens will render the same
shallow DOF, as will an ~f/4.5 large-format (4x5) lens, in "normal" focal
lengths. (e.g. ~80-100mm and 150mm) as the 50/1.2 wide-open.
