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.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged).

    Overall satisfied with the product. I got it even after knowing the drawbacks it would have for not having a full frame camera. 50MM will be equivalent to 85MM. I find it good for Steet photography but not for Potrait, since I have stand way back in order to get everyone in the frame.
