I took the longest time to buy this lens for I did not think it would be worth $300. What a mistake! I love this lens.
It is fixed on my 5D and it is what I use for most of my pictures. I love the 50mm focal length, its just right. The image quality is excellent, and the bokeh is great! love the f/1.4.

Love the camera! Very reliable and is a workhorse. It is finely crafted to address the needs of the modern photographer.
Incredible Auto Focus, build quality, excellent high ISO performance, picture quality and sharpness.
On the downside, do not like the black AF illumination, there is a lot of autofocus setting you need to go through to really understand what is the right setting for you and the lens your are using (not a bad thing but it can be complicated)

Pros:
|
Cheap, f1.8, fast, compact

|
Cons:

IQ, inconsistent AF

Very affordable, decent build, compact lens. I loved the compactness and the range but later realized you get what you pay for.
The major advantage is the f/1.8 but is seems inconsistent at f1.8
