Got my Nifty 50!

I just got my new 50mm Canon 1.8 II lens from B&H. I figured for the money ($75) I couldn't go wrong. So I pulled it out of the box and snapped a few shots. I know the exposure and composition are not stellar on these shots, but I just wanted to show what the lens can do right out of the box. Shooting this lens with a tripod is going to be great.

The first is of our cat Indy (whom we now call Snaggletooth, for obvious reasons).

It's got to be one of the best lens values out there! Awesome for low-light no flash shots inside.

:) That's what everyone says when they first see him. I think it's the fire-eyes. He's actually very mellow, but he just can't seem to put that tooth away.

I think I need one of those. :cool:

I think there was a similar cat in the movie Pet Cemetary, so that's why you guys think he looks evil. My wife's going to love it when I tell her the guys on DRN think our cat is a demon! :laugh:
