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.

    I absolutely enjoy taking portraits pictures with my 50mm canon lens! Definitely one of my favorite purchases. Even for a beginner it gives me the blur effect everyone loves to see in amazing portrait photographs. If you don't have this lens i highly recommend getting yourself one. You wont be disappointed!

    Just upgraded from the last generation “nifty 50”. And I have to say this is better. A little sharper, better build and has a little more weight.
