Customers are saying

Customers find value in the EF 50mm f/1.2L USM Standard Lens's exceptional image quality, dreamy bokeh, and impressive low-light performance, frequently praising its ability to achieve a shallow depth of field and produce sharp, clear images. However, some customers note that the autofocus can be slow, and the high price point may be a deterrent for some buyers. The lens's weight is a point of contention, with some finding it substantial while others appreciate its manageable size.

    I use this lens on my canon 5d mark IV for video and photography. It’s quick and robust. You can’t go wrong with this 50mm L lense. Image quality is amazing. It’s bokelicious!

    I love the softness of the background. I shoot a 6D and did not face focus issues. Very fast lens. I only used for portrait and I am very satisfied.

    I am a wedding photographer and this is by far my favorite lens! It barely leaves my camera - perfect focal length for portraits and love the softness at 1.2 for detail photos!
