    I heard many great reviews from other photographers ....But I was kind of worried having a cropped sensor camera ,how I'd like it . Having a cropped sensor makes this lens closer to a 75mm. But I'm loving this lens and the 1.8 aperture!!

    Before I bought this lens I did a lot of research and it definitely paid off. I found exactly what I was looking for in the price range I was wanting to spend. The bokeh effects are really nice when shooting portraits and the autofocus is pretty fast. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

    This lens is awesome, and the most amazing part is the price. We use this lens mostly for outdoor family photos, engagement pics, etc. Once you try it you won't want to use anything else. The picture quality and bokeh produced is incredible and compares to high-end lenses.

    This is a great lens, glad I bought it but...it does not have any capacity to zoom in or out. I knew that before the purchase, just didn't realize I would miss it as much as I do. Great lens though, just be aware that you will physically be moving back and forth.

    In talking with the fantastic folks at Best Buy, namely the employee that hosts the Saturday classes, he recommended this lens for taking great portrait photos. He was right in! This lil Lens is amazing!!! If you want to capture a face and blur the surroundings....this is it!!

    Great little lens for pretty much everything. It’s my go-to and never disappoints! Perfect for capturing everything from a creamy bokeh background to the sharp details of an interesting subject. Small and easy to stow away when another lens is needed.

    I've been using a 50mm prime lens for about 5 years, and I decided to upgrade it to this newer version. Speed of focusing, glass, and overall improved greatly. Very very happy with this purchase! 50mm are a must have in my book, the 1.8 aperture is great in low lighting situations!!
