Brilliant Lens!!
I use this lens all the time for portraits in the studio. Absolutely brilliant, clear and focuses brilliantly on the subject. Works well at night/ less light situations as well. I would totally recommend this lens to any photographers.

Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM - APS-C Review / Retest
The overall build quality is very decent with a metal mount and an outer barrel made of good quality plastics. Manual focusing feels quite smooth albeit not damped. The broad, rubberized control ring is certainly a plus compared to the tiny focus ring on the EF 50mm f/1.8 II.

Produces very crisp and vibrant photos. Great for low light photos. Easy to use

It is really a f2.2 lens
When shooting at f1.4/1.8 the sharpness leaves a lot to be desired. Even at f2 it is only good. Not until you get to f 2.2 and more does it really start to shine. Might as well buy an f 2.8 lens. I tried two different versions of this lens and they both were identical in performance.

Just the ticket
I used to do my general photographic work with a 35mm film Nikon with a 50mm f1.4 lens, so I needed to get the same for my Cannon Rebel Digital. It's the best for the kind of picture I take.

No downside for me
Just received it and it's amazing! Even if I ordered a used one, it works perfectly and the image quality is SO impressive! I took this shot with the canon rebel t5i. Very satisfied!
