Review on Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM lens, black by Janis Endzelins ᠌

If this is going to be your first lens, spending fifty dollars is probably about right. You can get a great high-aperture fix for a low price, and it can take photos that are both portraits and landscapes, as well as moderately detailed macro shots. However, after some time has passed, you will start to realize that the "universality" of the 50 mm focal length is actually a double-edged sword. After utilizing lenses with a focal length of 85 or more, you realize that the lens you purchased for fifty dollars is not ideal for portraiture because it produces too much distortion in the image. After shooting with lenses with a wider field of view, you get the impression that using this lens makes it a little too crowded for you to capture the "genre" indoors. In addition, there is no such dynamic that would already be present at a distance of 24 while shooting in broad regions.
