Title: Soft focus & it Quit working
Review: I bought the Canon 50mm f/1.4 lens about 3 years ago. It was OK and did a descent job of capturing low light images (small clubs/concerts) but it has lost its ability to focus. If I auto focus, I have to back far away from my subject for it to lock on and if I switch to manual focus, the focusing ring just spins and does nothing. I have not dropped or handled this lens roughly, it just seems to have give out and quit working. Even when it did work, it was never tack sharp but I shoot with all L lenses so I know this isn't a fair comparison but I have seen other images this lens produces and mine never seem to compare. So I must have bought a soft copy along with being poorly built. I am being generous giving it 2 stars. I dont think I will replace this lens and I cant see paying $1500 for the f1.2 L version either although I would to have it.
