Take the time to do MFA, your camera supports it.
There's software that does it for you, but since you're on the f1.8, I assume you're on a budget.

Canon 50mm f/1.4. Most photography forums considered this as an L quality lens. I have it and I couldn't be happier. I shoot with primes now because of the sharpness and speed.

The 50mm f/1.4 actually outperforms the f/1.2 at different apertures. It's an impressive lens.

This lens used to be ~104 at amazon....now cheapest is like 119. Why did it go up? Isn't it unusal for technology to increase in price? They must not be producing these things to keep the price up.
