    This lens was better than I expected. It captures light really well in dark settings or at night even with a quick shutter speed. Great for night portraits!!! I don't mind that it has no zoom because I enjoy using it for portraits anyway. I already recommended it to friends :)

    I love this lens! It’s the first one I’ve bought new and it has helped improve my photography tremendously! The photo I attached was taken in the bright midday sun.

    Used it on my Canon Rebel SL3. I have yet to take portraits with it as my original intention, but it’s very sharp and clear. Focuses great! Worth every penny. 10/10 lens. 5/5 star review.

    Great for portraits and capturing literally the eyes’ view. You move where you want the picture taken. Very impressed with the overall quality and ability to have the focus points changed compared to other lenses that don’t let as much light in.
