Finding a good cheap 50mm lens for Canon Dslr cameras has been the quest of many a photographer.

Every Slr camera owner must have a 50mm lens. This premise still is the reliance of many photographers who have been colse to the photo industry for a long time. Truth is that with the advent of so many zoom lenses, a 50mm lens is not so much the norm any longer.

However, when you think the ability of images that are produced with prime lenses verses zoom lenses, the prime lenses win practically every time.
Canon has industrialized the technology of the 50mm lens to a point where it authentically should be a "standard" in every photographer's kit.
Think about it. There is no need for additional technology to deal with the effects of focal length changes in a single focal length, or prime, lens. Thus, the already great 50mm lens just gets good as glass ability improves.
There are three versions of the 50mm Canon lens.
- 50mm f/1.2 L - high-priced but marvelous (it's an L lens)
- 50mm f/1.4 - medium price and fantastic
- 50mm f/1.8 - cheap but fantastic
They look pretty much the same in a list. The differences are in build ability and aperture. The first two on the list are more solidly built and have more lens glass than the third one. But that does not mean the ability is a whole lot different. It isn't. Especially to man who views your images with a "normal eye" (that is man who is not trained to look for imperfect pixels).
Canon has essentially taken the great technology and used some less high-priced "wrapping" in the form of plastic casing to make the 50mm f/1.8 lens authentically affordable for virtually every Canon Dslr owner.
Aside from producing authentically good images, this cheap 50mm lens for Canon cameras has other authentically safe bet benefit for photographers who are just entering the digital Slr market with cameras such as the Rebel or the most recent mid-range 60D model. Since those types of cameras have a "crop sensor", the image is more like one shot with an 80mm lens (this is 1.6 x 50mm), which makes this lens exquisite for portraits and other mid-range focal length requirements.
Here's the issue. If you purchase any zoom lens in the 0 price range, you will without fail be getting a consumer grade product with less than stellar image quality. If you purchase the cheap 50mm Canon lens, you will be getting top of the line image quality.
Yes, the build ability of the lens is a bit "toyish" in feel, but the yield is nothing less than great.
If you take care of this dinky lens, you will have marvelous photos for a long time.
