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 saw that you should have this in your collection of lenses but mine does not get much use. But it is a nice lens.

    This is a great versatile lens for any level of photographer! After six months, I have yet to be disappointed by this great purchase. Make sure to pair with a lens filter as this is a great protector!

    Love this lens. I was going to get the previous version of it since it was on sale but although that one had great reviews, I got this one since several others noted that it was better constructed. Great for capturing photos of my VERY active toddler!

    Great starter lens. Create nice and sharp images, good bokeh, great in low lighting thanks to the 1.8 fstop, and a great price!

    Lens is ideal for the money. I opted for the f1.8 over the f1.4 based on other reviews I had read. Happy with the purchase.

    If I had a $150 budget and could only have one lens on my camera, this would be it. I've done whole music video shoots with this lens only. You will not find a better bang for your buck than with this lens. Hands down.
