Canon 50 1.4 or the Sigma 30 1.4 are both good. If you are really serious about good/smooth background blur than you need to go to an L lens - something like the 35 1.4 L. But that is big money. If you are choosing between the two lenses above just go into a shop and take a few frames on your own card and have a look at home. I think the 35 will be more useful as a general portrait lens than the 28.
Canon stuff.
