I agree with you, it is very well built and ultra sharp but bulkier, heavier and more expensive than the 50mm1.4 Canon. That is why it is not on the list. It is not really an alternative and more of an upgrade ;-) Hi Pau. I agree with you, it is very well built and ultra sharp but bulkier, heavier and more expensive than the 50mm1.4 Canon.

But for the 50f1,8, it cant be used because the lens does not have a real focus ring. Well, it could be used but it wont be practical. If you are interested in a 50mm lens only for video, check this post: http://www.canon5dtips.com/2010/01/50mm-duel-zeiss-50mm-1-7-planar-t-vs-canon-50mm-1-4/ The Zeiss could be a good alternative.
