most still have AF, just no zoom. that's not always true. prices of all lenses just depend on what f-stop (how low) they can go and the quality of glass used. in the canon lineup there are three different 50mm primes. the f/1.8 is only $125, the f/1.4 is $375-ish, the f/1.2 (with L glass) is $1530. for the average buyer, the f/1.4 is a great buy but the f/1.2 is where it's at if you want the best possible image in that lens range.
