    Lens produces excellent bokah when used as a portrait lens with crop sensor cameras. Also works great in low light situations with the 1.8 aperture. One of the best lenses you can buy for the price it's sold at.

    Unbelievable image quality from this lens. Cannot believe how well priced it is— although I will say I have a preference for 50mm 1.2 if it’s within your budget

    This is an absolutely fantastic lens. I bought it as a gift for my 11-year-old daughter who is just got super into photography and sports photography and she absolutely loves it. It’s doing a great job and helping her out immensely. The price point is fantastic also. I would not hesitate to buy this lens.

    This lens is great for the price! Take great pictures and it is easy to use once learn how to use a prime lens. The only problem I have is the auto focus is too noisy to be used for video. Overall, I will recommend this lens for anyone.

    My daughter was so happy. She is so satisfied how she can now explore and do a lot of creative shots in her camera. She thought of buying a new camera but when she learned about this lens, she gave a try. And she is loving it!

    I had to replace my 50 mm lens. It took me a while to find a compatible lens for my camera. The lens arrived in a timely time frame. Easy to use. Easy to mount to a Canon D 40 camera. Very clear photos.

    I do not know a lot about cameras, but this was a solid $100 investment for my wife's Canon Rebel T5. Pictures have a great look, and it is very easy to use.

    With this lens you can get a butter smooth background blur for under $150. While the aperture is wide open, there is some purple fringing, so I shoot around f2.8 to minimize the fringing while maintaining a nice background blur.
