Thanks for the quick reply!
Thanks Sebastian. It's what I wanted to hear. Even new, the price is only about $325. Usually there is a catch when the price is that low. However, the 50mm/1.8 is a nice lens......for $75! :rolleyes:

The problem is, it becomes a bit difficult to use on a digital body due to the crop factor. It is definitely on my list of lenses to get though, it's pretty much number one.
I suggest you go try it at a store, take it outside, shoot it wide open inside, etc. The Nikkor was incredible, I hope the Canon is close, for our sake. :)
