I just spent $300 of a 50mm fixed f/1.8 Canon lens, and I've been thrilled with it. No, at f/2.8 it's not as sharp on their L-series, but I don't shoot at f/2.8 that often. At f/4.0 it's one of the sharpest lenses I've used, including some of the L-series.
Canons nifty fifty lens has great glass in it for $100. For what I'm doing I keep shrinking mm lens. The 24mm L f1.4 lens was still narrow so went to a Samyang 14 mm f2.8
