    Yes this is a much needed and wanted improvement over the older model. I take video where I need my lense to be on auto focus and when I replay the footage you can barely hear the lense shift. It's amazing and I'm glad I purchased this as a replacement to my other much noiser 50mm

    Nice lens ,wanted a fast fixed focal length lens. To carry for a variety of subjects when telephoto length isn't needed.

    Anyone buying this is probably getting one of their first lenses with a consumer dslr. Congratulations on moving away from the kit lens! This lens works exactly as described and is cheap enough to get you a versatile lens that will allow you to learn a lot about photography.

    Can’t beat this for the price. Fast and wide. 50mm is essentially what a human sees

    I'm learning about photography for kids and infants and I'm on low budget, so after reading a lot of reviews I decided to add this lens for work. And I got to say, with the $$ I paid, it's big bang for the buck. My pictures turned out great. Can't be happier

    If you are not going to take far away shots and want to lighten up your Camera weight and size - you can take off the 18mm-55mm lense and put on this one. The only down side to this one is you cant zoom out. You will have to back up away from the object.

    Got this to go with my new camera. Been having a lot of fun taking various up close and far away shots with the various lenses. Reminds me of the fun I had using my OG cannon rebel when we actually used film.

    This new version of the 50mm Canon lens is faster and more quiet than the previous. It's a must have for any photographer, and at this price it's hard not to want it
