About this product

The Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM is a high-performance standard prime lens known for its natural perspective, bright aperture, and compact design. Offering a versatile 50mm focal length on full-frame DSLRs—or an 80mm equivalent on APS-C models—it is an ideal everyday lens for portraits, travel, and general photography. Its fast f/1.4 maximum aperture allows excellent control over depth of field and superb performance in low-light situations, delivering sharp subjects against beautifully blurred backgrounds. The lens utilizes a Gaussian optical design featuring two high refractive index elements to effectively reduce spherical aberrations and distortion, ensuring consistent sharpness and clarity across the frame. A Super Spectra coating helps minimize flare and ghosting, enhancing contrast and preserving color accuracy, even in challenging backlit scenes. Autofocus is driven by a responsive micro Ultrasonic Motor (USM) that provides smooth, quiet, and accurate focusing—beneficial for both still and video work. Full-time manual focus override allows for immediate fine adjustments without switching out of AF mode. The rounded eight-blade diaphragm creates soft, natural bokeh for a pleasing aesthetic, particularly in portrait and close-up shots. Lightweight and reliable, the EF 50mm f/1.4 USM remains a trusted choice among professionals and enthusiasts seeking a blend of speed, precision, and optical excellence in a classic, compact form.Manufacturer Items Include:Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM LensCanon E-58 II Lens CapCanon Lens Dust Cap E (Rear)Bundle Items Include:Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM LensCanon Mount Adapter EF-EOS RShoulder Bag64GB Memory Card

Canon - RF50mm F1.4 L VCM Hybrid Prime Lens for Use with EOS R-Series Cameras - Black

5.0(6)

The RF50mm F1.4 L VCM is part of the expanding Hybrid lens series, targeting a wide range of still-image and video shooters, with a combination of wide-angle coverage, a fast f/1.4 maximum aperture, and excellent image quality. On a full frame camera this lens gives you a Standard-angle look which has for decades been the most "all-purpose" focal length for photos and videos. On the video side, this lens really shines with a dedicated manual Iris ring, and a linear focus motor called a VCM (Voice Coil Motor) that is virtually silent. The VCM works in tandem with a Nano USM (Ultrasonic Motor) on the floating focus unit for incredibly fast autofocus. And finally, focus breathing is barely noticeable on this incredibly versatile lens, minimizing distractions for your viewer, and keeping your imagery and story as the priority.
