OK, I'm thinking of buying a prime for my Canon 30D. I have several zooms, but want that shallow DOF/beautiful bokeh/low-light ability afforded by an f1.4
I'm going back and forth in my mind between the Sigma 30mm f1.4 and the Sigma 50mm f1.4 (I can't afford both, as much as I would like them )
I shoot a wide range of subjects at both ranges -- my most used lens now is my 17-50.
I'd love to hear arguments for both. I lean towards the 50 (partly because of the possibility of a ff camera in my life some time in the distant future), but it certainly ain't cheap! I made good use of the 50mm standard lens in my 35mm days which is a good arguement for the 30mm on my 1.6X sensor.
