I Love It!!

My 50mm arrived this morning - its awsome and soooooooooooooooooo fast!! Heres my first shot....

Very nice! What aperture were you using for this shot?

Glad you like it K! Look forward to seeing more pics

Thanks I assume that is wide open? How are you finding it? I know the Canons are a little soft wide open but when stopped down a couple of stops they are very good.

Yes thats wide open - i was looking at the f1.4 but theres not enough diff between the 2 lenses to justify an extra £150 or so.

Its a little soft wide open but not enough to bug me and nothing that cant be sorted. Iv stopped down with it but the difference isnt hugley noticable - well not to an untrained eye LOL

I was a little unsure about buying it TBH as with lenses, you usually get what you pay for - this one is not the case and the results are brill

Yes that is similar to the two Canon's. The difference in IQ is fairly minimal (especially when stopped down) - the main difference is in build quality, AF speed and bokeh.

I guess it also depends on what you want to use it for - sometimes people like the softer effect for portraits

Again this sounds similar to the Canon 50mm f1.8 - for the price the lens is very good

Great shot! brill colours.
