Okay
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So much chromatic aberration, and af pretty slow and hunts a lot. Okay for beginners but you’ll grow out of it pretty quickly

Not very good auto focus
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a Canon 5d Mark ii camera and this 50 mm lens would not focus automatically about every other time I tried to focus the camera. I returned the lens to Best Buy.

Excellent lens for portrait photography
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM lens is a stellar performer, delivering stunning image quality with its wide aperture. The lens's fast autofocus and smooth bokeh make it a joy to use, especially for portrait photography. Its build quality is reliable, and the affordable price adds great value to any photographer's gear collection. Highly recommended for those seeking sharpness and beautiful background blur.

Too much telelephoto
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a 1.6 sensor on my Canon 50 D. This lens has too much telephoto to use as a lens for indoor christenings or wedding photography.

Canon 85mm - Sharp! Sharp! Sharp!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This lens is nothing short of amazing. For the amount of money, it really delivers a high quality sharp as tac image. LIke others have mentioned it is a lens to have in your bag. I was originally debating on whether or not to get it since I already had a 50mm 1.4, but I'm glad I did. The focal range is much different allowing you to get closer for more detailed shots versus the 50mm. I'm using a 7D and together these are a great combo. The only bummer part is the hood is not a screw on like other canon lenses i have. This one has to clip onto the lens.

Great Lens
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I highly recommend this lens for portrait photography. Does great with creating that bokeh look and the lens itself is sturdy and well built. It's a Canon. You can't go wrong with that.

Great piece for a great price
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This lens is a great piece of glass. I had been eyeing the 85mm for years, but never wanted to buy it thinking it wouldn't be as good as a more costly one. WRONG! This lens is great for portraits and I have done more than that with it. I am glad I bought it and can't wait to take more photos with it.
