Hi,

Price is not really an issue.. the flickr galleries for both of these lenses speak for themselves.

Buy both.

And I know that this isn't strictly an apples to apples comparison (prime vs zoom), though they're both quite fast, wide aperture lenses. I would also prefer to stick to Canon, not third-party.

Well, I would consider options from Sigma, Tamron and Tokina.

I would guess that my usage will be about 50/50 handheld/tripod. I definitely plan to shoot some longer exposures and will shoot at night and various low light conditions. Probably some stars/milky way when I can get out of NYC. But of course, then I will be using a tripod.

Same answer as above. Rent it or buy it with a return policy.
