I used a Canon EOS R camera set at 30.3 Megapixels.
The lenses were mounted on the camera using the simple EF to EOS R Mount Adapter that doesn`t affect image quality because it doesn`t contain any optical elements.
As this video focuses only on sharpness performance, the following in-camera corrections where turned on during testing: Peripheral illumination correction, distortion correction and chromatic aberration correction. Diffraction corrections were turned off.

Totally agree with you RJ, had both lenses but the 1.8 stm beats the 1.4 on everything other than the bokeh and lowlight
Thank you for commenting! It seems that the newer 50mm f1.8, released in 2015, is better (at more aspects) than the old 50mm f1.4, released in 1993.
I have neither of those lenses now but I will buying the f/1.8 soon. Thank you!
If my video helped you, I'm glad! Thank you too for leaving a comment!
I have one! I didn't used it so much yet but the pictures I took are good actually.
And now after seeing that test, I'm glad I have it 😃
Great to hear! Enjoy it! 😃
Thank YOu. Usefull test.
Glad to hear this! Thank you for letting me know!
Great presentation as always. And yes.. i have one :)
Excellent! Thank you very much!
I have a canon 50mm f/1.8 II lens. It is f/1.2 and 35mm on my viltrox speedbooster and M6II.
Such a nice piece of equipment, the viltrox speedbooster! An f/1.8 turning into an f/1.2 is a big improvement!
"I have one" since it was released and I'm still happy with its results!
Glad to hear that!
Whats your opinion of the canon 40mm 2.8 ?
Pancake lenses are very portable and that's a plus. Sharpness is good enough and it doesn't distort the image. 40mm, on a Full Frame camera, is a bit wider than the 50mm, so its useful/more useable in tight spaces; but not as wide a 35mm (a good thing if you consider a 35 to be too wide). I would get it for the portability - of course, it is also an inexpensive option for everyday photography.
I've been concerned that the f/1.4 lens wasn't significantly better than the nifty-fifty f/1.8. (I got the f/1.4 used for the price of a new f/1.8.) According to your results, the f/1.4 is absolutely terrible, but I've not seen this previously in others' comparisons. I'm wondering if you happened to use a particularly poor copy in your tests. In fact, I was just looking at a comparison, and the f/1.4 is very noticeably sharper at f/2.0 than the f/1.8.
For these tests, I used a mirrorless camera, the Canon EOS R, set at its challenging resolution of 30.3 megapixels. By using a mirrorless camera, any potential lens decalibration issues are resolved. That is how the tests turned out.
I am not aware of any other issues the lenses might have had, but I'm fairly certain there weren't any. Either way, I wouldn't be concerned about the f/1.4's sharpness performance; it is very good. The two lenses are very similar.
For my tests, I photographed an A3 printed image and performed heavy cropping in the corner. In real life, these sharpness differences are extremely small. I wouldn't worry about the sharpness of an Canon 50mm f/1.4; it is a good lens.
i have one the cheapest STM version! my friend said 50mm f1.4 USM is more sharp, but i have to compare the result is same with your video, my prewedding picture looks not good as well cause he is prefer using 50mm f1.4 USM than 50mm f1.8 STM.
Good to know is not only my intuition, it's fact.
Nice to hear this story! Thanks for sharing it, and yes, the inexpensive STM is sharper!
@@apertureatlas yeah, thank you for the videos!
😮🤩
No surprise here, the 50 f1.4 is very well know as one of the worst lenses Canon ever manufactured; and the shame it's that the 50 f1.4 is from 1993 and was never updated, 30 years without a new 50 f1.4 even in the new RF system is unacceptable from Canon. Lucky for us there are Sigma 40 f1.4 Art and 50 f1.4 Art which are stunning lenses; the 40 f1.4 Art (which I just bought, selling both 50 Art and the RF 35) even surpasses the new RF 50 f1.2 in sharpness, while costing just a1/3rd of the price. As a Canon R user I'm pretty mad at them for not admitting third party lenses, there are new design from Tamron (the 35-150) and Sigma that are great and mirrorless native, while with old EF mount Art lenses we're stuck to use converters.
Yes, I agree with everything you've written.
