Canon EF 50mm 1.4 USM Lens- I'm so glad I broke my 1.8

Author's Rating: 5/5 stars  

Pros: Buttery soft bokeh, fast performance in low light conditions, ultra sonic motor

Cons: Spendier than the 1.8, a little slow to focus in low light

Bottom Line:
I have to give this lens five stars because I love the pictures I get from this lens- my subjects pop while leaving the background beautifully blurred. Read More

Canon 50mm f1.4 USM - Almost as good as it gets

Author's Rating: 5/5 stars  

Pros: Fast, light, great bokeh, reasonable price, lovely color, low chromatic aberration, decent build, excellent glass

Cons: Not as good quality build as L lenses, some don't like the focusing ring.

Bottom Line:
Buy this if you can afford it and have an EF compatible mount. It's so good your camera body will thank you for the rest of its life. Read More

My most important lens

Author's Rating: 5/5 stars  

Pros: Huge light-gathering capabilities, much better build quality than the 50/1.8, crystal-clear images when stopped down.

Cons: Fuzzy in bright light when shooting wide open.

Bottom Line:
An excellent value for such a solid performer. Your photos will instantly get better. Read More

If you own one EF lens, THIS should be it

Author's Rating: 5/5 stars  

Pros: Excellent sharpness, whisper-quiet USM motor, and actually a good value.

Cons: Manual focus ring feels plasticy, loose, and cheap.

Bottom Line:
Are you buying ONE lens? Can you afford this one? Buy it. That extra stop will save your life. Budget-constrained buyers should consider the 50/1.8-1. Read More

Great Lens

Author's Rating: 5/5 stars  

Pros: Very Sharp. Very Fast. Sturdy Enough. Excellent Brokeh. Versatile. Unlikely to outgrow as you upgrade.

Cons: Costly - I may not take it on certain adventures. Barrel-distortion in fullframe cams.
