    Good sharp wide angle lens, silent auto focus. If you don't need zoom, this lens is great.

    The lens is awesome. if your starting out, i would recommend this and Canon's 50mm that is priced at 125 dollars to have in your camera bag. the 24 does a great job with portraits that have the beautiful bokeh and landscapes.

    Love this little lens. Versatile for a variety of shots. This pretty much replaced my kit lens. Between this and my zoom lens, I have happy with the types of shots I can do as an amateur.

    Love this lens. It has really enabled me to take wider pictures. It’s not 180 degree width but it is really good. The lens was perfect and the ability to order on my phone and pick it up was great.

    Excellent lens for new photographers and helps capture wide shots other lenses can't. Also works well for background blur.

    A great single focal point lens. I use it for outdoor shots and certain studio work. It works well with my Canon 90D and great as an addition to the nifty fifty.

    One of My Favorite Lenses

    I am really liking the fixed lenses like this one. I have at least 5 fixed and this is one of my favorites. You can capture things and detail you cannot see with your eyes and then blow it up on the screen and it looks amazing. The inner workings of our grandfather clock we could never see so close look amazing.

    This lens has become my go-to for any event. I usually take portrait photos (and this creates beautiful bokeh) but this lens also works great for indoor events especially since the wide aperture allows a lot of light to flow in.

    I love this lens ! I bought it to start YouTube videos and the f/ 2.8 aperture is great indoors and in low light . I even used it to take photos and it gives a nice blurry background for those portraits

    I watched quite a few YouTube videos prior to purchasing. I am very happy with the quality of the build. With it being a prime lens it forces me to move for my shots, unlike telephoto.
