Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II - Nifty Fifty (B)

i like the iq of mine but the build has me hating the lens. i already broke one and every time i put it in a bag im paranoid something is going to push against the lens cap and drive it into the lens..

mines sharp wide open is noticably sharper at 2.2-2.8 by f4 its as sharp as can be.

I only shoot wide open with this lens. I never stop it down.

That one was taken a few months ago at the Vietnam Memorial...

That is an awesome picture!

Dabert07, those are great fotos! I like the model and I like the warmth of the setting sun. Did you use an off camera flash with soft box?

If I'm using a camera bag with separate sift compartments then the lens is protected. If I'm just using an ordinary bag I ensure the lens is in its own soft protective bag.. If I just dumped it into the bottom of any bag without protection I'm sure it wouldn't last more than a day or so, and that would be wholly my own fault. I wouldn't and don't do that with any lens, or flash, or whatever.

If you don't look after your gear then don't blame the gear when it breaks.

took this yesterday at the local pet store.

Well said! The very motto I live by...

I used a vivitar with umbrella for alot of the pics. No flashes were used for the sun flare shots
