Was having a play with a canon 50mm today actually for the first time...foucses very quickly, thought about getting one before but wasnt sure. But since I never hear a bad thing about them I think its about time I get one.

Ive read that the mrk1's are a better build qualitiy tho, are the mrk's the same apart from a plastic housing?

Well this thread inspired me to get a Nikon 50MM 1.8 for my Nikon D90. I only got it today and I must say I am VERY impressed. Its like my eyes have been opened all of the sudden to a new world..

Here are a couple of shots I took today with just a light saver bulb up above

The standard lens makes the pictures look as if they are from another camera.. I did a slight temp adjustment in NEF and a slight bump in exposure, but it remains pretty much as it was.

Thank you so much guys for this thread... shame so many are not fully aware of the "fiddy" effect

My daughter said she'd be working from home today...


...and I believed her, how could I not?!


Singing away after a bit of sherry Christmas day.. (only joking!)


My sis chilling out during a quite moment...


I'm slowly staring to understand his lens. I still need the flash at times due to kids not sitting still etc, an learning high speed sync and other flash settings has been useful over the Christmas period! Sadly only found out about that after a day of rubbish shots. The above I still like though :)

^ for the previous, taken on a 400D with the 50 1.8. I personally could really do with IS though - 2 out of every 3 shots are not usable at native resolution for me.

Yeah likewise, thank god for reduction bicubic sharper! :D

I like your gulls, I got some similar shots yesterday. Not with the 50 though! The Gulls really batter the ducks don't they? There's 2 swans on the canal by me as well, and the gulls are lot more wary around them!

MINE!
