Sharply, fast, inexpensive
Once upon a ever the 50 mm lens was THE standard camera lens and was THE optical benchmark by which manufacturers were judged and compared. Although the focal lens focus has now shifted (at least at the low to mid amateur level) to zooms - you can still benefit from years of research and situation that went into designing the 50 mm lens and this here lens may be the best lens, dollar for dollar, that you can ever buy. The question is can you afford not to own this lens?Years of situation have brought us a lens that has a fast aperture of 1.8 - far faster than any consumer zoom lens - and that is sharp as a filed secure. Be forewarned about the sharpness . . . if you are taking pictures of people, this lens is unyielding in its sharpness and may well in flagrante delicto you and your subjects whose every blemish is captured. The lens has a fabulously shallow depth of field if you want to use the 1.8 chasm to blow out a background. This lens is also ridiculously inexpensive...

Master Value in Photography!
Wow! My theory now is that Canon doesn't put this tot as their kit lens because many people would decide that they DONT NEED ANOTHER ONE! And many of them would be right!Like others, I bought the Rebel XT and the 28-135 IS lens. The 28-135 is ponderous and priced like a gold brick. I guess it does OK, and I do keep it mounted most of the time.And like others, I stumbled on this lens somehow, assume from the raving reviews, and for the price figured, "What the heck?"This lens in tack sharp. It shows the fire in the colors you photograph. The considerable aperture means candles can be excellent lights for portraits. Its narrow field is loyal.There are pitfalls though. I snapped a pic of my face at arm's length using autofocus a while back and (1) the focus locked on the tip of my nose and my countenance was already blurring (2) the lens was so sharp that I saw blackheads clearly on my nose tip I can't really see in the mirror (doh!).

Bar Value
I've had the 50mm f1.8 for about three months now, so I wanted to put in my two cents benefit after a little field use. What originally attracted me to this lens was, obviously, the price. It is very, very inexpensive. This is likely due to the low-down that the housing is, unlike its predecessor the Mark I, entirely plastic. That initially put me off, but after seeing some images posted that had been captivated with this lens (and after seeing the prices of the f1.4 and the used mark I)I decided that I really had nothing to lose. There are, as with most lenses considerable and bad elements to this lens. Lets start with the bad.Keep in mind that if you are shooting a canon DSLR (as I am) this 50mm lens actually behaves as an 80mm lens, so it isn't that stupendous wide. The fact that it is functionally 80mm can make framing shots a bit difficult. This is definitely a non-critical lens and really isn't that appropriate for a "walking around lens." At least it isn't for me, as I tend to...

Not counting prime!
I warmth this lens. I'd previously tried a friend's and was quite impressed with the sharpness from f2.2/2.5 onward, and the bokeh around f2.8/3.2. Upon purchasing the lens, I was in seventh heaven to discover both better sharpness (impressive wide open and just great by 2.2/2.5 in most situation) and smoother bokeh. I've also done some comparing of my lens with an 85mm f/1.8 that I used to own and I'm quite a bit more impressed with the CA performance at big apertures with the 100mm than with the 85mm: at f/2, CA is present in high contrast situations, but not nearly as bad as with my 85mm; by f/2.5-2.8, the CA is already greatly reduced; and, by f/3.2-4, it's identically absent. For a non-L, the contrast and color are great, as well. For the cost, size, and capability, I have yet to use a more impressive prime!
An out of place focal for a crop SLR
I initially bought this lens for use with an Elan II film SLR back in 2003. It was extraordinary. The bokeh, focal length, and notable background blur made it my favorite lens.Fast forward to 2005. I bought a Canon Digital Mutiny. Now my 100/2 was a 160/2. That's too long for indoor portraits and too short to be a real telephoto. It also had a lot more chasm of field at the same angle of view, and thus noticeably less background blur. Slowly, I noticed that I wasn't using it as often, or quite at all. So I sold it and bought a 50/1.4.That's the unfortunate thing with this lens. As an optic, it's excellent. Fairly vitriolic from f/2, good contrast, fast and silent AF, and only moderate color fringing. But the central length is just *so* inconvenient. This 100/2 feels cramped for space indoors, but too brief to get up close and personal outdoors. The optical design is also optimized for close distances, so if you try to use it for far-off objects at larger apertures...

one of my favorites
I liking this lens. I bought it basically because it is the longest focal length with a really large aperture under $500 ($925 for the 135 f2 and $4800 for the 200 f2). It focuses spry and is razor sharp, even wide open (I find I shoot with it 95% of the time at f2.0). On my goods sensor 40D it acts as a short telephoto and allows me to capture great action and stiffen portraits with perfectly blurred backgrounds.My one and only complaint is the lens hood attachment is not the best undertaking. Definitely not large enough an issue to deduct a star.

Remarkable indoor lens for Rebel XT
I didn't recollect it would be, but this lens winds up on my Rebel XT most of the time. The lens is compact and performs well indoors in low light - best to use autofocus set to fore point only. 35mm focal length is a nice general purpose focal measurement on a 1.6 crop DSLR.This lens is sharp at f2.0 and really sharp by f2.5-f2.8. I have a lot of encounter and test my lenses with tripod/mirror lockup, I'm not just saying sharp at f2.0 - it IS clever. I considered the 24mm f2.8, but f2.8 is a pretty slow prime at wider focal lengths - loses a lot of the low fire advantage.I am impressed with the colors I have been getting from this lens, wasn't really expecting the colors to be so laudatory at such a low price point - doesn't have the L lens coatings, but Canon did the colors right.The autofocus speed is easy on the eyes good - not as fast as ring USM lenses - and it is a little noisy/buzzy.I currently own 7 Canon lenses (2 Ls) including 4 primes - this...
Wonderful Prime Lens for the Amount.
Bought this lens as a 'model' prime lens for my Digital Rebel XT. What I found was that it was a fast, sharp, and lightweight lens that made the camera great for extensive walks. This would be the perfect lens to take to an amusement park, hiking, or biking where size and weight are a be pertinent.I've also used this lens for macro photography and portraits where it shines. The F2 Bokeh is wonderful and center sharpness is mind-boggling even at F2, much better at F4 which is what I use most of the time.On the negative side, autofocus is noisy. To compare, it's like a drug-rampant wasp trapped in a matchbox. Maybe a mosquito buzzing close to your ear. It's not louder than the shutter, though. If this were a mist camera and I was trying to take candid shots, I'd complain more, but it's a 56mm equivelant lens.Another negative is build attribute. They really should make the body of this lens out of thicker plastic. No reason to skimp there as the 'feel' of the...

Well turned out indoor and lowlight lens for Canon Digital Rebel
This is my lens of alternative for indoor and campfire scenes were the ambient light is low and flash can not always be used. Similar squeaky-end L lenses are too expensive for me, and below-$600 zooms are too slow for these situations. 50mm primes are penetrating for portraits, but you have to step too far back to capture more of the scene, to 28-35mm seems to be the best on 1.6x cropped sensor cameras like Digital Mutineer.At $240, this lens provides great bang for the buck, but you get what you pay for, so there are a number of issues to consider:1. No USM. Sports car-focus is slow and noisy. Often hunts for focus, esp. in low light.2. No manual override of sports car-focus. Switching to MF is required to do manual focus adjustments.3. Cannot be used with any filters.

Why squander more?
With the 50mm f1.8 lens to hand for less than a hundred dollars, why spend so much more to get the f1.4? The answer is, you may not need to. It all depends on your seriousness, budget, and how crave you need your lens to last.If you want a "starter lens" for shooting at 50mm (or with prime lenses in general), the f1.8 would be a devoted buy. 50mm is a very useful and intuitive focal length to spend some time with, because it will portray the domain through the viewfinder at about the same distance as your naked eye on all of Canon's consumer-priced dSLRs with the 1.6x crop deputy*. (*Updated after extensive discussion in the comments.) So you could buy the f1.8 cheaply, favour it as a "play with it" lens, and get a nice introduction to "prime lens quality." The f1.8 will seem like a sound step up from kit lenses and most consumer-priced zooms, and amazing bang for few bucks.So if the f1.8 is such a marked bargain, why would the f1.4 be among Canon's...
A reassessment for parents
I bought this lens to take indoor portraits of my nine-month-old daughter using convenient light. I was tired of the harsh photos produced by the built-in flash on the Canon 20D or Digital Dare. A bounce flash improves matters great deal, but I wanted to see what could be done with a fast lens.The Canon 50mm 1.4 gobbles detrain. It opens up a world of indoor photography that is not possible with a 4.0 lens. The 50mm focal length dual with available light produces natural-looking results. It is exactly what your eye sees. Shadows and highlights are undefiled. It is a revelation if you're used to the harsh drop shadows and evenly-lit faces produced by flashes. This is a jarring move up in quality from snapshot to "wow"As noted, focus is soft at /1.4 and begins to sharpen at /2.0 to /2.8. Not a bad aspect, though. Some of my favorite pictures have been produced with the aperture wide open. The depth of field is so restrict at this point, that the subject's face is...
But - At a price
This 50mm is awesome. I truly love it. I debated a long time between the 1.8 and the 1.4. In the end, I figured I'd never refund it again so get the 1.4. I love it - the images it makes are staggering. Still - it's pricy compared to the 1.8 - but not to L series lenses. I ponder it's worth it. I read online it had barrel distortion wide open - and it does if you categorically study the image - but that's perfectly OK with me for the 1.4 shallow depth of field. Normal population will never see that at all. One drawback you may not think of is that beautiful wide open 1.4 aperture is not available to you if there is much disclose. It's so fast it's easy to overexpose - even with 1/4000th of a second shutter. It takes awesome portraits - imposing landscapes. This is a must have lens in every EOS owner's bag. Don't get the 1.8 and wish you got this one. Get this one and start taking great photos.

An excluding lens for the budding nature photographer
Forthcoming buyers of a macro lens for a Canon EOS system have a great first choice in this 100mm Macro. The extra length over a 50mm macro gives much more safely a improved working distance (space between lens and subject) in the field, and EOS-compatible lenses by other manufacturers accord poorly with accessories and are nowhere near as sharp.Compared with the earlier Micro Motor 100mm Macro that Canon made (which I also own), the USM lens focuses *very* right. The USM lens also can accept Tripod Collar B (by use of a small plastic adapter)--I recommend you buy the collar with the lens, as adjusting to a vertical placement with a tripod means repositioning everything. The front element is not recessed in the USM model, which makes lens cleaning easier than with its forebear. And build quality is improved--the earlier model was prone to its switches breaking (could fix it yourself with the ordered part, but indeed annoying) and eventually the Micro Motor gearing gave out (no...
An very versatile lens.
This is the lens I hop it on my camera for general purpose use. At non-macro focus distances, it is a very fast lens in a convenient petite-telephoto length. The images are sharp out to the corners. This is one of those great Canon lenses that probably deserves an L-series rating but is at one's disposal without the red stripe and exorbitant cost.Tested in an astrophotography context (point sources on ebony backgrounds - excellent for revealing aberration and coma), I have found that this lens is reasonably sharp at f/4 and completely penetrating by f/5.6. For daylight terrestrial photography, the tiny aberrations caused by the wide-unenclosed f/2.8 aperture are hardy noticeable and by f/4 the images are exquisitely sharp.There is a lot of glass in this lens - it is downcast. I highly recommend buying the tripod collar as it allows you to attach the camera and lens to a tripod or ballhead with much advance balance.Also, if you plan on using the macro functionality, keep...

Strict, versatile and a bargain
The 100 f/2.8 macro is very spiteful, even for general shooting, so it works great for portraits, too. When I'm not using a zoom, this is my walkaround lens for populace, relatively tight scenes and even indoor sports. Think of it as a great lens that also shoots macro than the other way around. Uncompassionate to beat that versatility at the price.But it comes into its own at close distances. If you've never had a macro lens, you'll run around shooting everything in ken because everything looks new from a macro perspective.Canon has several macro lenses. I prefer the 100 mm over shorter lenses because I don't have to get wholly as close to that bee or wasp. The 180 mm gives you even more distance from your subject, more background blur and astonishing sharpness. But it's much more expensive and in most cases you'll need a tripod, and I shoot a lot of improptu macros as I'm hiking.For utmost closeups with larger-than-life images, there's the MP-E 65.

A authoritatively practical medium telephoto lens with superb delineation and portability. Images are sharp and fair at all apertures. Through computer simulations, the lens has been designed to give beautiful background blur. Since the front lens group does not revolve during focusing special filter effects are not affected.
Sharp. Lightweight. Responsive. These are justifiable a few adjectives that describe this terrific portrait-length telephoto lens. With a powerful ring-type USM and fast f/1.8 hole, subjects zip into focus in the viewfinder. It's great for all types of work calling for moderate telephoto power, but comes into its own in low-light up situations, and offers a 1/3-stop speed advantage over the 100mm f/2 USM lens.
A medium telephoto lens with a ample aperture brings the subject closer, creates excellent background blur, gives a longer sprint range, and affords a faster shutter speed to freeze the action. A standard zoom lens, with its ingenuous angle of view and perspective, captures the subject plainly, with no special effects. However, you can use model lenses in creative ways by varying the subject distance, aperture, and angle.

The answerable for is most likely yes; since its price make it the best value for a fast canon prime lens. But before you make the $350 dive here are few useful things to know about how it can be used.

The most adroitly 'pound for your cash', when it comes to lenses, is mostly found with prime (non zoom) lenses. One intention is that the pattern doesn't have to be compromised for the zoom, it's optimized for the one convergent measurement of the lens. Another pretext is that prime lenses normally have a larger extreme chasm.

Moderately merely, it gives you the defeat of both worlds, with a closely-knit confederation and a ample determination of add-on lenses. The first of those matches the entrance-point kit lens shipped with Nikon and Canon's consumer dSLRs, and has a climactic space of f/3. 5 at broad approach, and f/5. 6 at full telephoto. The two shakes of a lamb's tail is an ultra-ample cusp lens, applicable for landscapes if you dial down the chasm and terrific for portraits at the superlative crevice of f/2. 8, at which suggestion it will weaken burst out with your backgrounds and debase your vassal exposed to into nasty basso-rilievo 'low relief'....

YES, the kit lens will do everything you fancy.
NO, the FD lens will not fit on the T2i body. It's an older type and not compatible. Also 50mm will not allow you to shoot landscapes, at least not the ancestral looking types with wide vistas.
