    Good for Portraits

    This lens is a good choice for taking portraits because of the wide aperture. Since it does not have image stability it is best to use a tripod for clear pictures. Over all an excellent value.

    This is my go-to lens when I want to get a nice portrait shot or if I'm taking action shots. It's a must-have that I've been very pleased with.

    Frat value for the price. This lens does a lot for a little. Great for creating some bokeh and capturing some portraits and candids where you can keep who/what is in focus in focus.

    Since I added this lens to my kit, my portraits improved tremendously. Now, I can get that blured background on most scenarios. I recommend it.

    This is a great lens for any photographer. It's very affordable and great for low light and wide aperture shots. It will help beginner photographers increase there skills because it is a prime lens. My only complaints are that the image quality could be better and it's hard to get you focus correct at wide apertures. It is also noisier then I expected when focusing. That being said it is still highly recommended.

    I am a beginner camera user. The lens was very easy to use. I bought the lens while it was on sale. It was worth it. Nothing too complicated.

    Just starting out in portrait photography on an APS-C camera (T5i) and this is a great lens to start off with. It has taken many quality portraits that have been used for senior pictures.

    This lense is great for anyone looking to increase the focus of a subject and blur out the background of the photo. Gives a professional feel while keeping more money in your pocket.

    My first ever prime lens i purchased. I use it on my 77D which has a crop factor so this acts like a 80mm lens. So clean and amazing in low light

    This is great for small profile shoots, the depth is great. Have been using it for a year and it's excellent just to have on the side.

    A pro quality lens that makes for clean and crisp photos. Very large aperature makes for some very versatile shooting. F-stop of 1.8 is great and totally worth it for Portraiture.
