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 is the second time I've bought this lens. Results seem to have been better the first time several years ago when I had a rebel t4i. Now that I purchased this lens on a t6i, the performance seems to have diminished a bit.

    NIfty 50. It's very middle of the road lens. If it's all you can afford or need a 50 now, go for it, but would save for better if you can.
