I want a match to the 24/28/35 IS USM trio in a 50mm f/1.4 lens. It could be $100 more and still worth it.

Seems like it should be a no brainer but who knows.

From my understanding, Canon wants to maintain a line of lenses with 58mm filters which are moderately priced and good quality. 24mm f2.8IS and 28mm f2.8 IS are among this lineup. 50mm f1.4, 85mm f1.8 and 100mm f2 are also in this lineup, but these are old lenses and hopefully Canon will maintain the same quality as the 24mm and 28mm with new updates.
