Do Want: A Fast Prime Lens

Today I went and visited my parents and played with my Dad's new toy: a 50mm F1:1.8 prime lens on his "little" Canon DSLR. That thing is amaaaaazing. It is stupid fast. I shoot pictures (almost) in the dark at work, and I would really like to have one of these for my work camera. Sure you have to "zoom with your feet" a bit, but pick the right focal length when you select your prime and you're halfway there.

I didn't know what I was missing. No wonder these sold out immediately.
