Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the EF50mm F1.8 STM Standard Prime Lens for EOS DSLR Cameras, especially regarding its lens quality, ease of use, and overall performance. Many appreciate the background blur and depth of field it provides, as well as its lightweight design. The primary concern expressed is with the auto focus, which some users find struggles in low light.

    Overall satisfied with the product. I got it even after knowing the drawbacks it would have for not having a full frame camera. 50MM will be equivalent to 85MM. I find it good for Steet photography but not for Potrait, since I have stand way back in order to get everyone in the frame.
