Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love the portraits with it. But need a lot of light for it to look good.

This lens is more than enough for low light situations. It takes time getting used to the focus however its more than enough for the average single person photo

The least expensive art lens you can buy for your full frame, great for portraits in low light, however does have trouble focusing quickly when on AF

Fast lens. Way better than previous version. Smooth focus. Price is right. Everyone should have one in their gear bag for this price.

Great lense for the price...started shooting using manual settings and this lense was just what I needed to get the quality images I was looking for

Exceptional quality & sharpness for the price. Has quickly become my primary default lens, more adaptable than others

I really enjoyed starting out with this lens I have the canon eos r because I was familiar with cameras already and decided to get a full frame camera I do plan on getting l series’s lenses but for beginners this 50mm 1.8 is great.

This lens is just what I needed and was glad to get it. Small in size but enable you to take great pic. Easy to use and understand.

I was looking for a fast lens to use indoor and in low lighting conditions. This one filled the bill for me, offering brilliant images without a lot of cost.

Very nice close up shots. Very good detail. You do have to have a steady hand or else it won’t turn out how you want it too.

So I was taking pictures with the kit lenses that came with the camera. I noticed that I was not getting the sharp images that I wanted. I bought this lens and it changed my photography skills. I’m still a beginner but getting better shots with this lens.

The Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Standard Lens is a good lens for closer up pictures. It's good for beginners, especially who want to try different things.

Great product for the money, worth every penny. Would recommend.

I love this lens!!!! I love the sharpness it gives the subject as well as blurring the background to give more of a depth. I'm very happy with my purchase!

The 50mm lens is classic lens and must have for all amateur or professional photographers. I learned photography using just this lens

My son has really gotten into photography and requested the purchase of this lens. He really loves how it makes your subject stand out against more of a "blurry" background due to the fixed focal length. I've used it myself a few times and it does a great job for what it's intended to do.

I have wanted this lens for several years but the price remained the same, for years, from everywhere, to the penny. I was checking a Best Buy sale e-mail and found it cheaper and decided "today's the day".

I am not an expert on cameras. This is my first attempt on this type of camera. I bought this lens to take sharp close ups and this lens does a great job on these type of pictures.

Got this for my wife for Christmas to complete her Camera bundle from last year. This is great for use with the camera’s video feature.

If you only have the kit lenses that came with your camera you need to get one of these. Good results for day and astrophotograpy.
