My Most Expensive Piece of Glass
I have just purchased my most expensive piece of glass yet. The Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 lens. Before owning this lens, I have owned The 50mm f/1.8 lens. I loved it, I shot my 2012 Graduation with it. However, it is a Prime Lens. So you must only have certain amount of Focal Length.
Pros:
- Beautiful Depth Of Field
- Compact
- Durable
- Easy To Use
- Large Aperture
- Lightweight
- Solid build quality
Cons:
- Expensive

Awesome lens, but if you are upgrading ...
Great lens, I am very happy with it, and this will likely continue as one of my favourites.
Pros:
- I have had this lens for well over a year and it is great
- It is very quick and provides very sharp images - perfect for portraits However, the gain in going to this from the f1.8 version is pretty much negligible.
Cons:
- Too pricey with too little gain from the already pretty good f1.8 version
- which is considerably cheaper

I am happy with the Lens
I am happy with the Lens. Initially there was an issue in registering the product into cannon warranty. But happy with the customer-care of Amazon and sellers, they helped me resolving the issue and get the product registered for two years as mentioned in the site. Body of lens is of good quality.

Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Lens
Although not pin-sharp at its widest apertures, Canon's EF 50mm f/1.4 USM remains a competent performer and its image quality between f/4 and f/8is excellent. Two issues should be considered when assessing this lens: the size of the sensor on that camera with which it will be mainly used and whether...

Excellent low light lens
I've had my EF 50mm 1.4 lens for many years. My Canon 6D normally carries a 24-105 L series lens. The 50mm is used when I want to lighten my load or shoot photos indoors with natural light.

Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM review
The Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 is a pretty unassuming-looking lens. It's not big, it's not flashy and it's not particularly expensive for a fast prime lens. Indeed, the light weight and the plastic finish do give it a faintly cheap feel.
