Canon Nifty Fifty.

Canon EF 50mm f1.8 II Autofocus Lens.

I bought this to plug into the QHY8 but had to move the QHY8 on in a hurry to raise funds for the QHY9. This is brand new, still in the box, I never got to use it.

$100 + post

[EDIT]
You need an adapter to connect a canon lens to a QHY8. This sale does not include such an adapter.

omg, they're all lying!

What's the Thrifty Fifty, then? I was always told/read that the 50mm f/1.4 was the Nifty Fifty.

The thrifty nifty fifty!
A 50mm TSE would be a 'shifty' fifty and a waterproof one would be a 'drifty' fifty.
