Great price and great , light easy to use and fast

Comments about Canon Normal EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Autofocus Lens:

I use this mostly for night photography without flash. The results have been wonderful. I considered purchasing the L series equivalent 50mm prime but not having $1500 this lens was the obvious choice. It performs just as I had hoped and the autofocus outperforms my other lenses.

This is one of standard prime lens that you can use for various condition. I would say this is good for portrait and general snap shoot. I recommend strongly.

Sharp pix in low light. That's a tall order and this lens will fulfill its mission. Great for indoor events photography and night sports (assuming the 50mm throw is reasonable). PRice well, too. Haven't used it for portraits, yet but the specs suggest it be terrif wide open with the background easily defocused.

I use this lens to get super sharp shots of our dog and for general indoor use. well worth the money.

I am a hobbyist and enjoy taking scenic and portrait shots. This lens is a must have for "pro-sumers" who understand the value of aperture size and the speed of USM, especially for portrait shots of children. The motor is ridiculously fast and getting that focus in an instant really helps with the kids. Plus everyone should have at least one prime lens, so if $$$ is an issue, the cheaper brother to this lens is the 50mm f/1.8, but it's not USM.

Additionally, for people who are starting to use DSLR cameras for HD Video Recording, a prime lens makes an excellent static (on a tripod, etc) video lens.

Everyone tells you to get the 1.8 but if you can save up a little more for the 1.4 please do. The build is way better and you don't feel like its going to fall apart. Focus is pretty fast and images are tack sharp at 2 stops above f1.4. I shoot a lot of night photography and video, but I could not justify the 1.2 L. Sure, the extra light will help a whole lot but I rather purchase this lens, the 85mm 1.8 and maybe pick up a wide angle before I even think about getting that 1.2L.

Recently I transferred from Nikon to Canon DSLR. I used to like Nikon 50mm F/1.4D very much. It was very difficult to choose a right one among the 3 50mm lens (1.8, 1.4 and 1.2L). Of course 1.2L should be the best but the price is also unreachable for me at the moment. I don't like the design of the either. Therefore, I purchased this lens from Canon to take photos for my wife and friends. I have used it for about 2 weeks. Most photos look very nice, thankful to its excellent design and big aperture. Its bokeh is also very creamy compared to Nikon 50/1.4d (also likely due to the better imaging of Canon 5D Mark II vs. old Nikon D70). Autofocusing is fast and accurate unless it doesn't have IS so you have to hold it steadily in dim environment. It's also small and light, easy to travel. Now I have 16-35/F2.8L and 70-200 F/4L as well. I only bring 16-35 and this lens with me when traveling.

Really great lens in a good price. Very sharp, good autofocus, much better than 1.8 lens I had before. Pictures look fabulous !

Comments about Canon Normal EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Autofocus Lens:

A great lens for all my indoor portrait taking needs. Lighter than the standard Lens that comes with the Canon kit (but still has a bit of weight because it is a solid lens). Great buy even with the duty I had to pay to Canada.

Comments about Canon Normal EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Autofocus Lens:

Relatively silent and quick AF
Good sharpness wide open
Nice close focus bokeh, sometimes harsh
Decent build quality
Aging design, but it's all about what you can do with it!

Comments about Canon Normal EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Autofocus Lens:

This lens is bar far very good for a photographer starting out in this type of business, works well and is constructed nicely.

Comments about Canon Normal EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Autofocus Lens:

Super Sharp, Great Contrast and color. Works really well with our 60D. Much more functional and flexible indoors than the 85 1.8 (which is also a fantastic lens, just a bit long for shooting in smaller rooms) especially on a cropped frame sensor

Comments about Canon Normal EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Autofocus Lens:

merits:
silent and precise focus and very fast, so it is possible to use it in many situation, also in some movement target (slow movement).
the manual focus ring is very large and usable and comfortable to use.

defects (if it is possible to find):
in the box ther's not hood ad bag for the lens, I bought them after

I put this lens on my 7D and haven't found a reason to take it off yet. It is one of two lenses I own that do justice to it's 18MP sensor. The sharpness is amazing stopped down to f/2 and the focus accuracy has been great so far, even in exceptionally low light. At f/1.4, the images are definitely soft, but comparable to my zoom lenses (non-L, I blew all my money on the 7D).

If you have a crop body and find yourself trying to decide between the 50mm f/1.4 and the 85mm f/1.8, just decide if you would like to do more than headshots with the lens. If yes, the 50mm f/1.4 is the best value I have seen. I also own the 85mm f/1.8, but I have found that the focal length is very limiting on a crop sensor for anything other than portrait work.

I think I'm supposed to complain about something, so I guess that would be the lack of internal focusing. I have kinda gotten used to that feature of the 85mm f/1.8, so I'll have to make sure not to put it up against the glass at the aquarium and try the AF.

All in all, this is a great lens if you don't mind zooming with your feet.

I have had this lens for the Canon 60D for a week or so now. I have used it a lot in low light without flash and everyone that has seen the pictures are amazed at how good they turned out without flash. A fast focusing lens also. I turned down the 60D with the kit lenses and bought this lens to start with, best decision I could have made. I have not found anything to say bad about this lens at all. I am very pleased with this product and the great service from B&H Photo
