Customer Ratings & Reviews

This lens is a great option to have with my camera. Great for portraits. It has such a large aperture you can take pictures in low light. It's a great lens at a low price.

Great bokeh, easy to use and good image quality. This is basically the lens that everyone should have on their basic kit. It can also work as macro lens if you buy a reversal ring which is pretty nice too.

I love this zoom for my cannon t6 take good pictures even in dark

I love it. Glad I made this purchase. Took some great photos with it.

Works very well with my Canon 60D. Enjoyed using it to take engagement pictures of my son & his finance. Easy to use. Clear, crisp photos.

I literally bought this lens purely because of price. I also didn't have one in my Arsenal. When I finally took it out on a shoot, I was so surprised at the quality and the depth of field. The pictures had a very professional quality about them.

This lens is great, and it comes at a very low price! The quality of the images are just great and i was really surprised by the price! The lens slides right on my camera and it feels great the pictures come out great! At a really low f-stop you can get great shallow backgrounds!

Great photo quality. This lens fits on the rebel t5i.

Works well, I expewcted it to be noisy based on other reviews but was nearly silent when I used it. It focus searches a little when attached to extension tubes (copying old negatives), but it gets there. A sharp lens.

Excellent for near pictures and the price is good and easy to used

Its a good lens and gets the job done. It's great if you are just starting with dslr cameras.

Bought this lens after watching a couple of review videos of how easy it is to use and they were absolutely correct fell in love with this lens right away and quality of pictures was improved immensely !

This lens is on the cheaper side of Canon lenses, but it doesn't fall short. It creates a great background, and it is great for portraits. Wouldn't recommend for landscapes, but definitely creates beautiful images! Very lightweight and works great with my t6s.

Aperture aperture aperture. I was so surprised at how pleasant and fun this lens is. It was recommended to me by a store employee and one day I thought why not I’ll buy it it’s only $125. Oh my goodness do I love this lens it is small and lightweight I love it because when I edit my photos I tend to zoom in dramatically on many photos that I take and when I use this lens it minimizes the amount of editing that I do since it shoots at a zoomed in position already. I love that the aperture goes down to 1.8 and I am able to achieve that desire Desired of blurred background look I am now curious at how the $300 50 millimeter lens is going to work.

The lens that is known as the Nifty Fifty lens is now the one that is attached to my camera while in the camera bag. If I need something quick, it's my goto lens. It is a good all around lens and should be one of your goto lens if on a trip.

I love this lens. It is affordable, light-weight and takes beautiful photos. Of course as a prime lens (i. e. not zoom), it has limited versatility, but I am glad that I purchased it.

Heard a lot about the nifty fifty decided to get one, and I'm very pleased with the results. Great for all a around lens. Easy to get blurred background. Feel like I will get a lot of use out of this lens.

Everyone should own a nifty fifty! I love using this Len and use it a lot when doing portraits. The “boca” is really good with this lens. The price just adds to how amazing this lens is! Buy one….you won’t regret it!

This is an essential prime lens for portrait photography. Great price, fast glass, making it decent in low light situations. Good bokeh too. It is a little slow to focus, but the pros outweigh the cons on this one. You won't go wrong with this entry level lens.

For the price this lens is excellent especially compared the f1.4 version that's more than 2x the price. The autofocus is a bit slow but I chalk that up to my camera. Image quality is excellent and comprable to the more expensive f1.4 lens
