Hunting the 50mm

I decided to upgrade my lenses from lens kit to prime lens or L series lens. But as a student, L series is just like a dream.

But there is a lens that is very affordable for me. It is 50mm 1.8 II. I've been surveying the prices for about a month. It is very cheap and it is a very good lens too (according to most people).

Then, my attention goes to 50mm 1.4 USM after using my friend's lens that are equipped with USM (it was 10-22mm or something like that). The AF was fast and silent.

However, the lowest price for new 50mm 1.4 USM is around 40,000 yen. A price that is very high for me. I planned to buy a second-hand 50mm 1.4 USM. The price are around 20,000yen to 25,000 yen.

Next week I will go to Tokyo. I hope I can find the lens with reasonable and affordable price there.
