Why is the canon 50mm a nightmare to manual focus. Because i rarely ever use manual focus. Do you recommend sigma instead because it looks like a better lens. And i heard that canon 50mm f 1.8 is a poorly built lens, not the 1.4

thanks for the help

On the 50mm 1.8 its because the focus ring is very small. I dont think you could even get a follow focus on it.

HI everyone,

So i have with me the canon rebel t2i with the kit lens. I love the camera but the lens is just not cutting it. I really want one with a nice crisp image and an appropriate shallow DOF. I have been looking at the canon 50mm f 1.4 and that looks nice but I just dont quite know if it cuts the price. I am looking for a nice lens of the price range of 300 to 600 dollars. Please help me on advice for a new lens

thanks

why the 1.4? I have the 1.8 and cant justify 200 dollars for the difference. I did some night shots with it here 3:26 first music video so be nice lol
