Title: Worth every penny!
Review: This lens is a little workhorse! Before owning this lens theCanon EF 50mm f1.4 USM Standard & Medium Telephoto Lens for Canon SLR Cameraspractically lived on my camera full time. This lens now lives on my camera more than the 50mm. Why do I like it so much? It's a bit wider than my 50mm, which makes it less difficult to use in closer quarters on my crop body camera. It's super sharp, especially when stopped down to f2.8 and beyond. There's little to no discernible distortion or chromatic aberration. The minimum focusing distance is less than a foot, which means it behaves almost like a macro lens. What would I change about it? Not much. The only thing I don't like about this lens is the noise. It's focusing motor is loud. Almost too loud. If Canon announced a 35mm f2 lens with USM I'd be the first in line to buy it, but until they do this lens is nearly perfect for my needs.
