i've also looked at the canon 50mm 1.8 and even the 1.4 (nifty fifty) but am a little worried about the closeness it can bring to portraits on a 1.6X sensor.

the next lens i would consider purchasing after that would be the canon 70-200 f4L. for the price of this L lens and the versatility it would be a great piece of glass to have.
well since you still have the 18-55 you can just test out all the focal lengths yourself to see which one you are most comfortable with in a prime before U buy

EDIT: DOH The1 pretty much said the same thing =P
