It's like $90 and takes great shots in low light. Also good as a portrait lens, you get a nice shallow depth of field. And don't necessarily go with the 50D because it has more megapixels. More megapixels means you can make larger prints because there's more data captured, but it also means you might get more noise in your shots (because there's all those pixels to fill). The 50D I think has some new noise-reduction software to help with that and it shoots up to ISO 12800, though no idea how noisy it gets shooting that high. Still, either camera would be muy sweet.
