As much as I love my nifty fifty, if I am honest, I have to admit that my fancy fifty is also pretty freaking awesome. Shooting wide open at f/1.2 sure can be fun, especially with modern autofocus systems. It kind of takes most of the pressure off, knowing that your camera has your back and at least something is going to be sharp. If you noodle around a bit, you can probably get enough well focused images to cover yourself. We are certainly spoiled for choice these days. Anyway, I am glad to be able to own one state-of-the-art lens along with all my cheap as chips legacy glass. It is an important calibration point for me.
