i actually have the canon prime 50mm /1.4 and it was great when i 1st got it.
however, i started having focusing issues that i didn't realize until i was in post-process. i ONLY manually focus now - that helped a little. when i bought that lens, it had good reviews, so now i'm wondering... hmmm.
anyway, my camera is a low-end dslr...soooo, i don't know if it's the lens, or the camera, or that camera with that lens. all i know is i can't afford a better cam right now, and how frustrating it is to take 400 shots and end up having only 100 w/ the eyes in focus. errg.
i read an article that i posted a while back that had good info about 'that camera and that lens' issue (sorry, don't remember the link).
I have had to use mostly f/4 with what i have...rarely (and only in an extreme close up) do i go lower.
