EF 50mm f/1.8 II. It's about $100. Great "training wheels" lens with which to learn about fast primes and wide apertures. All of its drawbacks have to do with build and usability, and almost none of them with image quality (ok, it does only have five aperture blades, so oof highlights can sometimes take on a pentagram shape, but that's pretty much it).
