Customer Ratings & Reviews

Overall great lens for beginners-experts. Very useful.

Excellent quality for the money. This lens is the best bang for your buck as a beginner.

If you're just starting off with taking pictures you must get this lens can't beat the price for the quality of pictures you get from it

exactly what I was looking for and works exactly how I expect it

I'm an amateur still learning as I go. I read many comments on photography sites saying this lens was a must have in your gear. I decided to give it a try especially since it's pretty affordable. I am in love with this lens! It is so much fun to use! The amazing focused and blurred results I get in my shots have inspired me so much. I highly recommend this lens for amateurs.

Bought this for my wife. She really loves it and it takes amazing photos. This has really stepped up her photography game. Would recommend.

Great lense! I use this to photograph my headshots for clients. Works great, photos come out beautifully.

Amazing . A must upgrade for your camera makes photos look so much more professional for a low cost . Blurs background etc

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.

Borrowed one from a friend and thought it was a great lens no wonder they call it Nifty fifty

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.

Great lens! As good advertised! The pictures come out crystal clear!

This purchase was for a friend. She's had it for about a month and absolutely adores it. She used it for my graduation pictures and they turned out perfectly requiring minimum edits.

Good price and looking forward to using it on the road. Had good reviews and decided to bite the bullet and purchase it.

The lens performs really well , does everything I expected and then some. I had a school project due for finals week and the lens helped me capture a music video that conveyed all the shots my professor requested

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.

Its a great Canon lens specially for a prime lens to buy for the first time! Cant go wrong to have a 50mm on your bag!

Very good and sturdy lens for taking upclose and/or portrait shots

Open box marked as excellent but came missing front lense cover, other than that works great and one of my favorite lenses
