Re: 50 f1.8 STM for Sport?

Thank you all for your kind recommendation.. Really appreciated..

50mm (or 80mm with 1.6x crop mode) is doable FL in my case since I always stand at the court side.. Just unsure about the focus speed, if it's fast enough.. Since 50/1.8STM is so cheap, perhaps I will get one first, and if it fails, I can go with 85/1.8, which is expected to be faster and has more reach..
