[QUOTE="eurotrash, post: 134368, member: 9237"] As we all know, lenses perform their best stopped down a few from their max aperture. So a 1.4 is (or rather, SHOULD BE) sharper at 1.8 than a 1.8 is at it's max aperture. I know my 50 1.4 is sharper than my 35 1.8 at f/1.8.. Reason 2 would be to sqeeze some creamy bokeh out of a shot. Reason 3 would be to bump the shutter speed up a little bit if you need it. I'm not saying it's definitely absolutely worth the money, but those are some prime reasons why they exist. [/QUOTE]
