The Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM ($399.99 direct) isn’t as sexy as the EF 50mm f/1.2L USM that many pros swear by due to its light-gathering capability and rendering that creates an amazingly shallow depth of field, but at a quarter of the price of its faster...

The Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 is a pretty unassuming-looking lens. Its not big, its not flashy and its not particularly expensive for a fast prime lens. Indeed, the light weight and the plastic finish do give it a faintly cheap feel. And while this lens d...

Canon's 50mm f/1.4 USM lens is a well built piece of glass and the very large maximum aperture of f/1.4 means you can both shoot in dim conditions and get some pleasingly shallow depth-of-field effects in your pictures. Though predominantly plastic...

Introduced in July this year, the EOS 70D at first sight seems like a regular update to the maker's mid-range EOS 60D model. It shares a number of features with the firm's existing SLR range including a 19-point cross-type phase detection AF system, a 3-i...

The 50mm ƒ/1.4 is made up of seven lens elements in six groups, designed to fit a frame of film (or nowadays, the full-frame digital sensor). It's compatible with Canon's cropped-frame cameras, and when mounted on such, produces an effective field-of-view...
  • While it's not tack-sharp when used wide-open, the Canon EF 50mm ƒ/1.4 USM is still quite good, and stopped down to ƒ/4 image quality is excellent. At ƒ/8, it's as sharp as sharp gets. Used wide open however, the lens has some definite issues, and on full...
