I told him my fastest lens was f/1,7 (an A50 which cost me €30,-).
I assured him that 50mm are always fast and cheap. However, he has
an EOS 350D and when I checked I found out that the cheapest
secondhand EOS 50mm is €100,- or so...
The EF $50 f1.8 II is %75USD New. 100 Euro's is ridiculous, order
form the US.
Maybe, but ebay gives me running auctions at €76,- and €83,- at the
moment (and €11,50 and €2,50 for Pentaxes ;-)... Totally unscientific,
I know, but:
I know I would not have bought the lenses I did buy if I had an EOS:
It would have been several times more expensive, and I'm spending
too much on lenses as it is now ;-)
I hope you'll agree that that still holds true...
if those Auctions were for the original EF 50mm f1.8 it's probably
valid, it's a much better built lens than the II, and goes used for more
than the II goes for new.
