People, animal whatever. Just name the 50 (or 55 standard lens) brand and aperture used.

Just wanting to see how good the images from any of these lenses can be.

Canon EF 1.8 50 mm II at f1.8 or 2.0 on 20D and 1D III

Great lens for children portraits, but not as accurately/reliably focusing as EF 1.8 85 mm and sometimes slightly problematic bokeh when backgrounds are busy such as branches or bushes.

You should keep that Canon plastic toy. It produces the best pics.

Happy shooting,

Well, it's kind of cheating. It was stopped down to f/2.8, and I think I used a studio strobe. But yes, it is really good from f/2.5 and amazing from f/4.

Another one from the plastic toy at f/2.8, but just window light:

Seems like this 50mm thread resurfaces every few weeks...

Though honestly I think what you will see here is how good the photographer is at photography and post production... but it's always fun to show a few photos.

Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L all on the Mark III. First three are at f/1.2, though the last two are somewhere between f/2-2.8:
