    I have yet to use this during a photo session yet when I tested it in the store I loved it.. Excited to see what it can really do.. Just wish it did the same with an adjustable zoom .

    Does the job, but the build of the lens is not meant to last. If you cant afford the 50mm 1.4 this one will do the job.

  • Not for APS-C

    I own a Canon 80D and that makes this lens a 80mm and the distance is too far. It is cheap and it will work but it becomes too much of a hassle.

    This lens is amazing. However, if you don’t have multiple lens to change, you should try an buy a range 18-50mm lens instead of a set 50mm
