Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the excellent lens quality, sharpness, and overall performance of the product, often highlighting its ease of use and great value. They also appreciate its ability to create good background blur and depth of field, as well as its low weight. The primary concern, however, is that the auto-focus struggles in dimmer light conditions.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    This little lens is great for low light conditions. Quiet focusing mechanism and lightweight. I'm not a pro-sumer or a professional photographer, but wanted a lens that would take better pictures in low light conditions. Couldn't beat this prie.

    I was so happy to get this lens. I received it for Mothers Day. I had no close up lens at all. Mine were all telephoto. It takes good pictures. Its a great starter lens in this size. The ultimate one is the 50mm 1.2.
