I bought one of these just to see how much better a prime lens could be over a zoom lens, it`s awsome..! Makes all my other mid range zooms obsolete...I can`t afford top of the range long lenses so i just get closer with Primes. This lens is a steal at £75.00.
the 1,8ll 50mm is much better than the 1,4, I just love the bokeh, for this price you cant have a better lens. People always think the more they pax the happier they will be...not her my friends! It is so lovely light and short that you can even put it in your pocket. Why waste 500$ for a 1,4?? WHY?? I
you never leave a lens open and sitting on a desk vulnerable like that. You always put a lens cap on is and store it somewhere safe. There were numerous times when I thought your arm was going to knock it down and every time I cringed for the life of your lens. Seriously, I really hope your lens did not get any dust in it bc you left it open like that.
I definitely agree with you. First of all, it doesn't matter if it's a cheap glass or not. Glasses are glasses and should be handle with all care. You want to keep on using your 18-55, you take care of it even though you have a 50mm F/1.8.
1. You do not change lens like that because leaving the shutter facing upwards will accumulate dust as it falls.
2. Since you have the lens cover for the 50mm, couldn't you just take that cover and cover your 18-55?
@ch0w Yes, But no point into purposely allowing it to get in :)
Good video though. I bought this lens a little after I left that much older comment. It's alright, VERY BRIGHT but getting a sharp photo is hard in my opinion. I"m saving my money for the 10-22mm! That lens is AMAZING!!

Alot of people care about plastic mounts. Plastic mount = lower build quality. This lens sucks anyway. I suppose if you love the shoddy focus motor and super harsh bokeh, along with the 5 straight aperture blades, go ahead and spend the 80 bucks to get it. For me, I would rather save up 300-500 bucks to get the Sigma 50mm 1.4 or the Sigma 30mm 1.4... BOTH have metal mounts.
Bloody hell take it easy mate try not to rip the box you may want to sell it again, Yes the rear cap screws off anticlockwise LOL' Throw the camera strap at the keyboard 'great stuff'

@delavegaz6 = = = Just hold the camera, lens section facing downwards, and mount the lens like this. This is the best way i read and know
