Nifty Fifty

image from Amazon.com

I've got a new lens coming my way, and I can't wait to try it out! This is my first new lens I have bought for my Canon (besides the one it is sold with) and even though it's one of the smaller (and thankfully less expensive!) ones, I think I am going to love using it! The Canon EF 50mm is supposed to be great for low light and portraits, and my house lacks good light and I have a baby that ends up in most of my shots! Perfect! Several sites have recently listed the lens as out of stock, including the site I found it for the cheapest at. I ended up getting it through Amazon and paid neither tax nor shipping. Now to wait 5-8 days. I'll be stalking the tracking number on UPS. On a completely related side note, I've started a photography challenge blog. Check it out, and join us over at the Shutter Bug Challenge!
