COMMENTS: A fast, sharp "normal" lens for EOS cameras. It's 2/3 stop faster then the EF 50/1.8 II, it has faster focusing, full time manual focus, better build, a metal lensmount, a distance scale and better optics. However the price is higher too! It will outperform the 50/1.8 at wide apertures, but stopped down there's not much difference. Note that though this is a USM lens with full time manual focus, the motor is a micro USM, not a ring USM.
