Deal Expired

Another hot deal: BuyDig via eBay has the Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM for $279.00.

This is the absolute cheapest we’ve seen for this lens since we started tracking its price in 2007. With a fast-focusing USM motor this lens is a nice upgrade from the 50mm f/1.8. At this price it is tremendous value.

UPDATE: Amazon matched the $279 price.

    Cheaper on Amazon.com $268, priced at $279 and you get 4% back ($11) in rewards, which can be used towards a future purchase.

      The Amazon deal only started *after* this BuyDig deal, which was almost 22 hours ago now.

      If it is cheaper at $268, why are you going to cancel and order at $279?

    Does this work on Canon 5D Mark II?

      Yes. I have a Canon 5D Mark II. I use the 50mm f/1.4 all the time on it. It’s my go-to “light” setup.

    I did the chart on Amazon and it said it would not work on the 5D Mark III…..why would it say NO, it won’t work????

      That chart must be out of date — this lens is definitely compatible with the 5D Mark III.

    I called – they had a power outage Monday which delayed shipment. Mine shipped yesterday (12/4)
