I’m somewhat of a wanna-be cool photo dude so I was elated when I got my new 50mm f/1.4 lens in the mail as a late birthday present (late as in Amazon f’d up, not my folks).
it’s a really fast lens, and can open up real wide so you get pretty nice background blur and can take good photos in poor light. the depth of field is real shallow with a 1.4, something i haven’t experienced yet. Definitely a lot less cumbersome than my kit 28-135mm lens, but not the best walk-around, due to the focal length.
Here’s a few sample photos…click to view bigger, or even bigger on flickr.
