Customers are saying

Many appreciate the background blur and depth of field it provides, as well as its lightweight design. The primary concern expressed is with the auto focus, which some users find struggles in low light.

    This is hands down the best value lens Canon makes. No question this should be your first lens after using your kit lens.

    I bought this to shoot my 2 year old daughter since she doesn't like to stay still. I love that I can get close shots of her being so far away.
