So I bought a new (used) Sigma 50mm f1.4! I've been borrowing my buddy's Canon 50mm for almost a year now, and I decided it was time to own my own. I went with the Sigma because it was cheaper than a new Canon, and I also read a little bit about how the wider (77mm) diameter helped with softer bokeh. They weren't kidding! I did a few tests yesterday with both lenses and I'm definitely in love with it. (but not as much as my macro lens.)
