Title: ONE GREAT PRIME LENS
Review: I am a long time canon user, about 40 years. I have used canon wide angle prims, telephoto primes and the 50mm prime.When I decided to get a 50mm I tried the 50mm f/1.4. I lIked the lens and thought it was great, but when I tried to justify the costas opposed to the 50mm f/1.8 at 99.00 from Amazon (Adorama). I could not justify the cost difference, now I am so glad I went with the 1.8 versionyou will be hard pressed to find a lens this sharp at all f/stops.This lens has take a beating because of its cheap build. It is a cheap build (in hard plastic) with gread canon glass. Get past the "cheap build"and realize what you are getting for 99.00 or less.What do you want good looks 50mm f/1.4 or simple 50mm f/1.8 lens, Both are great lenses, but for the money the 1.8 is the better buy. I haven't gotten a bad picture with it yet. No sharpenoing in photoshop.TRY IT. WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO LOOSE?
