My awesome 50mm!

I got this lens from the popular shady shop where every seasoned photographer or amateur for that matter, resorts to for quenching his thirst for more gear...the fotocircle.

I realized that this lens is one of the best normal lens canon has ever made. No matter what any one says,and in spite of the fact that it is a full plastic body lens, for just 6000 bucks, you can not get anything better than this. The pictures are so crisp and clear, the DOF so very excellent and the bokeh so pleasing to the eye that you can not deny having one of those in your kitty.

I started using this lens for normal portraits with awesome bokeh effects in the backgrounds. Nevertheless, it is also a great Prime lens for normal photography too! If you think u need zoom then use ur feet do the same.
One thing is for sure: Primes can never be competed with by a zoom lens if you are talking image quality.
