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 LensShoulder Bag64GB Memory Card
