I've had both the 50/1.4 & 85/1.8 for years, and they are both very good lenses. The 85 is much faster at focusing on a moving subject, and sharper.

Unfortunately, both are a little tight on a 1.6 crop body, so I almost always use a 17-55/2.8is zoom instead. However, for the occasional tight portrait type of shot, they are hard to beat in the $500 price range.

Enjoy!
