I need a fast 50mm for my new 7D because I shoot in a lot of low light situations and the f3.5 28-135mm doesn't cut it. At first I looked at the Canon 1.4 but everyone says it looks 'hazy' below f2.0. The Sigma 1.4 sounds perfect for me but the only thing that's keeping me from getting it are many focusing complaints I'm hearing about it.

Is focusing really that big of a problem with these Sigmas or is it being overhyped?
