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).

    Great sense for the price. Excellent image quality, honestly - with the photos I get from this, I can't see spending more for the 1.4 or 1.2 versions of the 50mm. Just doesn't make sense. Focus is extremely fast, very sharp images.

    This is a great, inexpensive lens for portraiture, close-ups, and more creative photography. It's not for the photographer who has a minimal understanding of photography basics, or wants to keep their camera set on Auto all the time. It allows for exploration and wide-open shooting.

    This lens is really great. If you are not sure about spending for it - just do it! You won't regret it. I'm new to photography and this lens allows me to take incredible macro pictures. Make sure you adhere to the minimum distance from your objects, or it won't focus - I use this on a Canon Rebel T6. It is my go-to lens of choice for up-close and also portrait photography from here on out!
