So in a few months from now I want to buy a new lens for my 60D. Right now I only have one lens the Canon 15-85mm EF-S IS 3.5-5.6. It's a nice lens but unfortunately it's not a very fast lens. I am wanting a fast prime lens for the next lens I buy. For the focal length I can't decide between standard, and telephoto. It would be nice to have a fast standard for indoor shots, and it would also be nice to have a fast telephoto because I don't have that focal length. Looking to only spend $500 or less, but still want something good quality. I also am looking for an EF mount in case I decide to buy full frame down the road. Something with good bokeh would be nice, because my zoom can't produce much of it. So I have narrowed it down to 2 unless someone else comes up with something else. There's the Canon 50mm f1.4, and the Canon 100mm f2 (not the macro). Links are down below. If anyone has any advice I would really appreciate it, because I can't decide. Right now I'm leaning toward the 100mm, but I could go either way.
