    He asked I replied to that. You can buy a watch for Rs.100 or Rs. 200k. If you just care about the time , then maybe a cheap casio would do. However if build quality, performance and ergonomics is important to you , then you can gofor more expensive ones. Needless to say, a casio would show...

    Camera Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM vs. Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II

    As far as autofocus goes 1.8 is generations behind 1.4. It is slow, noisy. Build quality is poor as compared to 1.4. Again these things say nothing about the image that 1.8 can take. I have played around with 1.4 and image quality is SAME ( DXO says it's worse..) What you are talking about...

    Camera Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM vs. Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II

    f/1.4 can focus faster than f/1.8. I have f/1.8 and it's AWESOME. Unless i wanted to take pics of small children ( who wont stay still ) I don't think I need 50 f/1.4 for my photography needs.
