My 50mm has been unmounted twice in the past two months, both times for wide angle work. It's by far my sharpest lens and is amazingly fast. As difficult as f/1.4 is to focus, it makes my viewfinder ridiculously bright and makes manual focusing a breeze. Zooms just can't compare to a good prime in terms of IQ.
