Why shoot with a 50mm lens? • So long as you can move, immortal photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson have never needed anything else. • A fast 50/1.4 is a far better choice than any zoom for use in low light, and effectively quadruples your ISO, with no increase in noise, compared to any f/2.8 zoom. The 50mm f/1.4 increases your ISO by ten times compared to any f/4.5 zoom, again with no change in noise.
