With a crop sensor why not look at the Sigma 30 1.4 and the 100 2.8. That way you have a good spread of ranges 35, 85 and 135 (ish) with the 3 lenses. I shoot with a 5d and have the 35L, 85 1.8 and 135L, I find that the 3 lenses cover any needs I have.

I'm new to AFMA (obviously). Will be nice when 6D comes.

I have a Canon 50mm f/1.4 on my T1i most of the time. My shots are sharp half of the time. I know this lens is not very sharp wide open, but at f/2.8. I must be moving or something. my subject is not always moving either. Any ideas?
