Looking for an autofocus full sensor sized prime that looks good at f/2.0 (or faster), for under $500. I would prefer 35mm or 50mm. Is this available through other manufactures?
From the reviews, it's looking like the Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM is unreliable (the autofocus stops working and needs frequent repairs), and the EF 28mm f/1.8 USM is soft at f/1.8, and shows slight vignetting on a full sensor camera at f/1.8 (should I ever buy full size sensor DSLR).
(Thanks to the people who helped me find a decent point and shoot. For now, I've decided to get a point and shoot and borrow an a friend's Rebel XS when he doesn't need it...)
