Totally satisfied
Takes wonderful indoor photo's. All of my other lenses have IS in them, and i was concerned that this lens didn't have it . It takes great pictures hand held even without the IS in the lens. I couldn't be happier. Great price too!!

Best bang-for-your-buck lens EVER!
I've had my copy for about 3 years now and it never ceases to amaze me...
It just works wonders on a full frame camera and (especially considering the price) it can really producre some fantastic images!
f/1.8 on a full frame is all you ever need for throwing the background out of focus in most cases, unless your subject is really far away...
The build quality is nothing to rave about and some caution while using is advised, it won't survive whenever you drop it for example. I don't find it as flimsy as suggested by some people, but keep in mind that it's plastic with not-so-tightly assembled moving parts ;)
The AF is generally slow and may hunt occasionally, but only when it's really dark...
All things considered this is certainly a must buy lens if you don't own anything similar or when you cannot afford to spend a ton on another lens!

50mm F1.8 or 1.4 or 1.2 ??
Honestly, F1.8 is fast enough for most occasion. If you're not making money from your photos, this nifty fifty F1.8 will do.
Sure, its light, plastic feels cheap, loud but I still believe its a steal for the sharp images I get out of it.
I have to say thou, the focus ring is a little weird being at the very end.
