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 was my first lens purchase aside from the lenses that came with my camera. I bought it after several learning sessions with a friend and my new camera; he recommended I get a 50mm lens. I like the lens, it works great. As I am still new to DSLR photography, I did have some difficulty getting the hang of this lens at first.

    Bought this as an armature photographer to go along with my Canon Rebel T7i. The T7i comes with an 18-55mm zoom lens, and I would recommend against buying this lens to anyone who already has the versatile 18-55mm.
