Lightweight pancake lense great for a beginner and makes for great portraits

Nifty 50 lens is a must have! Gives you sharp crisp pictures everytime I am a beginner photographer and people have loved the pics I’ve taken with this lens It’s a must have This lens goes everywhere with me

I have the both the 50mm 1.4 as well as this new one, and I must say this is definitely lighter but don't let that fool you. It's fast-focusing and captures tack-sharp images on my 70D and 7D MarkII. Love it for portraits!

Great beginner prime lens for the price. If you’re just getting into photography and have a small budget this is a must.

Must have! Great lens for low light and portraits.

This seems to be a decent buy compared to Nikon which costs way more. Pretty good decent pictures can be captured . Took this for new born photography and so far great

You can not beat this lens. It is small, light weight, and never fails to give you great photos.

Quality and affordable. Easy to use and works perfectly with the Canon camera.

I love this lens easy to use very clear video and pics

A great lens to add to your collection! If you are a beginner or just replacing an old lens, you should definitely consider this one. It has the ability to create an awesome boca effect with the f-stop 1.8. Every photo is clear and crisp. It’s actually one of my favorite lens in my collection, and I use it in almost every photoshoot.

Pictures are crisp ND clear quality lens. Softens or blurs background around Subject perfectly

Great lens. My favorite prime lens. Easy to use. Great pictures. Sharp and clear.

I'm just a newbie photographer. I had the standard lens that came with my DSLR and I've purchased a telephoto lens as well. This lens is to allow me to take better portraits than the other two lenses and round out my options. This has met my needs so far and I was pleased with the functionality it provides given the cost. I knew I could spend more but I'm sure I wouldn't maximize the use of a pricier lens.

Haven’t had much experiences with different lenses, I’ve been using the one that came with my Canon. I bought this lense due to that it’s affordable and better picture quality at lower light which it has proven to have. Took a while to get use to the fact that it doesn’t zoom like my first lense, still worth the purchase and I’m looking forward to getting more experience with it. I would recommend

The image quality is great! I use it a lot for portraits of my son. The background blur is great.

very good lenses. was pretty inexpensive and definitely a value of the money. pictures come out great.

Great lens for overhead photography and blurry background.

This is the lens that you MUST buy if you don't have much money to spend and want artistic photos like a professional. Coming from kit lens this made a difference for me to like photography. Bokeh is phenomenal and pictures are super sharp. Only drawback is it cannot be used for landscapes or wide angle photography. Its more like a portrait stuff.

This lens is great for starters and professionals alike. It is very compact and quite fast and quite with the STM upgrade. It's bang for the buck and you would be taking much crispier photos. The lens is good for portraits but tends to distort at closer f stops. But absolutely go for it don't think too much!!

This lens is literally my favorite to use. As soon as I started using it a few months ago, I didn't really want to use any other. There are fancier lens' out there, but I just really love the image this one picks up. It also makes you use your feet a lot more being a prime lens which I think makes for better shots instead of zooming in.
