The “nifty fifty” is really just a great do it all type of lens. I have a DSLR just for family pictures and I always get great shots of my kids with this. It’s barely left my camera since I bought it.

Got this lens to use for portrait type pictures and was not disappointed! Love the low fstop settings for a nice blur to the background. Have had a blast experimenting with it. It has been a great addition to my equipment wish I would have bought it sooner!

This lens is an outstanding addition to my collection. I shoot a lot of pictures in low light gymnastics venues with not flash. This lense allows me to work in tighter spaces than my 70-200 f 2.8 does without loss of quality. Definitely money well spent.

This lens makes using the Canon cameras so much more enjoyable than the standard Kit Lens most of them come with. It's not multi-purpose like the kit lens is, but this should be an automatic inclusion when you buy your camera. It's THAT good.

upon the purchase of my first canon dslr, it was recommended to buy this lens in addition to the package lens with camera. I AGREE, it is perfect for portrait photos!

Stumbled across this lens at my local Best Buy, Actually googled it while I was there to read some reviews, all positive. For the $ you can’t go wrong. Great nifty fifty, plastic fantastic! Clear, fast lens!

Great value prime, with excellent brokeh at 1.8 though it really starts to clear up by 2.2 and fantastic sharpness at 2.8. Though my only complaint is unless your on a full frame 50 mm can be a little tight for my only prime and wish I had gone with a wider lens

I got this lens because I hear so much about it. I put it on my eos 70D and it really shoots a clear picture. I shoot alot of urban and landscapes. I think it's going to do the job well. I was amazed at the picture quality just shooting around the house.

I have only used the item a hadnful of times and am excited to use it in photo shoots. This lense was termed as a must have for any photographer who shoots portrait shots; it received high recommendations. Best Buy service was very friendly and helpful.

This is a great little lense for working wedding receptions and similar venues. A 50 mm is great staple to have in your kit and gives a nice shallow depth of field.

I use this lens for a lot of macro photography and portraits. It's adorably small and such a durable quality. It feels nice in your hands as you place it on your camera and overall, it's such a nifty camera.

This was my first prime lens, and while it may not feel like a Sigma Art lens in your hand it's astonishing for the value. Picture quality is quite nice for the money.
