Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Standard Lens: Capture important moments in your life with this standard lens, which works with your compatible Canon DSLR EF-mount camera. A circular aperture with 7 blades helps you add creative background blur.

The Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II Lens is an ideal choice for shooting a variety of subjects, featuring an aperture range of f/3.5 to f/38, one aspherical element, Super Spectra Coating, Micro Motor AF System, Optical Image Stabilizer, and a rounded 6-blade diaphragm. Its image stabilization minimizes camera shake by up to 4 stops, making it great for low-light conditions and slower shutter speeds. The bright f/3.5 to 5.6 aperture ensures reliable performance in dim environments. Its optics include an aspherical element to reduce distortion and spherical aberrations across the zoom range, delivering sharp, clear shots. Super Spectra coating suppresses flare and ghosting for enhanced color accuracy and contrast. Designed for APS-C Canon EF-S mount DSLRs, it offers an equivalent focal length of 28.8 to 88mm. The rounded 6-blade diaphragm aids selective focus and shallow depth of field, making it popular among both professionals and amateurs. The maximum aperture ranges from f/3.5 to 5.6, with a minimum aperture between f/22 and f/38. The focal length spans 18 to 55mm with an angle of view from 74° 20' to 27° 50'. Minimum focus distance is 9.84 inches (25 cm), with a maximum magnification of 0.34x for close-up shots.

Some items like your keys or wallet you just take everywhere you go because you just never know. For anyone with an EOS R series camera, add the RF50mm F1.8 STM lens to that list. As part of the EOS R System, it’s nice and compact thanks to its RF mount so you can shoot – and get a great shot – anywhere and anytime. Size isn’t all though. As a fixed focal length lens, it lets you be creative with composition and can be used for a wide range of scenes from snapshots to portraits, landscapes to low-light situations and more. Those images will stand out, too, just like you intend whether on social media, or when sharing or printing, thanks to impressive optical features like a PMo aspherical lens to suppress aberrations, Super Spectra coating to reduce flaring and ghosting, and a large f/1.8 aperture for low-light shooting and beautiful bokeh. Pick it up and use it one time and you’ll see for yourself, and you won’t be able to leave the house without it.
