Hey pRICE cUBE (and others)— What do you think of the very inexpensive (and cheap?) Canon 50mm 1.8 that you mention? Adorama reviews say it's pretty good optically even though the plastic build quality is in line with it's very low price. Has anyone used this lens?
I have this lens and while I am not a fan of the plastic mount, the affordability for performance per dollar is great. The motor isn't silent but it is not too loud, I have used it to takes pics of babies and they aren't distracted by it. Well worth the affordable pice.
