So. My nifty 50mm F1.8 STM Canon lens on my SL2 yields a focal length of 80mm. Do yall think that is too “zoomed in” for daily use?

    Do you have a kit lens? Set it to 50 and use that focal length only. That’ll answer for you if you could live with that focal length as your prime. Or see what most of your current images are taken at. Find a fast prime that falls in that area.

    If it’s 50, fine. If not, then you’re back to shopping around a bit. Canon has fast 24’s and 35’s. The 50 is just cheap because it’s a relatively simple lens design to produce a decent lens with.
