    Why you need the 50mm f/2 macro.

    Just bought this lens today, purchase price $460. I don't think I'll need any other lenses. Here are some test shots, nothing special. Made no attempt to correct for WB, these are just sharpness and quality tests. These are all ISO400 or ISO800, at SLOW shutter speeds - it's very dark in my place of employment. Can't wait to get it out in some real light!

    Very nice Erik. I have been meaning to pick a 50mm up. I have read great things about the lens. Be sure and write a review and post a link to it. Thanks for sharing.
