So I now have the Canon 50mm 1.8 MKII in my arsenal. So far I like it. It produces nice sharp images, even on my old Canon 350d. I have uploaded some sample shots on my flickr page (http://www.flickr.com/photos/roderz88/with/8391536665/) The images of the Autumn leaves and flowers at the top of the page are the ones taken with the 50mm
My only issue with this lens is that it have trouble focusing in low light, and when it does manage to auto-focus, it seems to miss its target, i.e it will front focus slightly. I did a search on Google and it seems that others have had this issue with it before. It just means I have to manually focus if I take photographs in low light conditions.
So my question is, how do you all like this lens?
I think my next lens will be the Canon 55-250 II IS. I traded in my old Sigma 55-200 (non OS) since it was just too soft a lot of the time.
