Digital camera reviews of Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Camera Lens
Digital camera Review: A Must Have for Every EOS Owner
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently purchased the Canon T1i with the kit lens. I also picked up this lens because of its attractive low price tag. This 1.8 has become my standard lens as opposed to the kit lens. It is fast, takes great pictures in very low light, and the clarity is incredible. The bokeh is very impressive and distortion is nonexistent. My only complaint, and it is a small one, is with the build quality. It is all plastic and looks somewhat cheap, but then again, it is a cheap lens that takes excellent pictures. Save the extra money you would have spent on a 1.4 and buy yourself something nice; besides the price you won't notice the difference.Digital camera Review: A Must have

Everyone should own one of these. Yes, I'll agree with the other reviewers who note that the build quality does seem to be on the cheap side and it's noisy, but it's only $70! It is incredibly light, fast and sharp for such an inexpensive lens. f/1.8 really does offer you a tremendous amount of control over depth of field and is a lot of fun to play with. And lets face it, at $70, it's a great option if there is any possibility the camera is going to get knocked around.Digital camera Review: A Must have for Canon Rebel XT

If you have a just acquired a Canon DSLR and the kit lenses just don't do it for you, DON'T HESITATE TO BUY THIS PIECE OF GLASS! Although this lens is the least expensive produced by Canon, it is worth far more the small price you're likely to buy it for. Although the lens has some negative qualities:
Slow autofocus that requires good light
Awkward manual focusing
Cheap plastic chassis
This lens is still an unbelievable bargain for what you receive. It is fast, great image sharpness, and useful in nearly every application.
