This lens is awesome. It is a canon 50 millimeter lens. This lens is a lens that a lot of photographers love. A few of my friends have it and say to get it if you want a good lens. So that's what I'm going to save up for, the awesome 50 millimeter lens. Why is it awesome? Well.........It is sharp, small, light, inexpensive and with an f1.4 aperture, fast....Although it is soft wide open, the Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Lens is sharp at f/2 and very sharp when stopped down to f/2.8 or narrower. Corners are soft until f/2 for 1.6x FOVCF bodies and f/2.8 on full frame bodies. Strong halation is present at f/1.4 (a soft, dreamy look) with some CA (Chromatic Aberration). Colors and contrast (after the halation diminishes at f/2 or so) are very nice. The 50 f/1.4's 8-blade aperture creates a good foreground/background blur quality. Light fall-off is noticeable through f/2 on a Full Frame body, When mounted on a 1.6x FOVCF body, light fall-off is noticeable only through f/1.6 or so. My exposures with this lens run about 1/3 stop brighter than with most of my other lenses..........yeah it might not make much sense to you and to tell you the truth it only makes a little sense to me, but that's great cause now I get to learn about it.Well this was a really random post but now you know about the 50 mm lens ;)
