    Help and advice on a Canon prime lens.

    This is what's tying me in knots. I've got my eye on both of these at the minute. Scratched the 50mm 1.4 from the list. In terms of IQ is there much between the 35 f2 and 50 1.8 @ f2? Thanks guys it's starting to get at least a little clearer.

    Thanks for the responses the more I think about it the more I'm leaning towards the 7d and 100mm f2. I think this could be the best 'bang for the buck' with my budget. I'd keep all my existing gear and save like crazy for the 17-55 2.8. Thanks.

    Advice and options please..,

    Thanks for replies. I was looking at the 7D over the 60D due to the faster fps and also it's weather sealed where as I believe the 60D is not. (50D was so go figure). I was hoping the ISO performance would be miles ahead on the maximum 1600 of the 450D which is very very noisy and that this...
