Customer Ratings & Reviews

This was the first lens I brought for my Canon 6D and it the quality is great. This is a perfect Prime to start off with and it’s really good for the price.

This is an excellent prime lens which is reasonably priced. Google Christopher Frost on YouTube. He provides excellent camera lens reviews for canon bodies. Christopher Frost's review of this lens is the main reason I purchased it. This lens is much better than the standard Canon 18-55mm STM kit lens. You can't beat an aperture of f1.8 in low light environments.

I LOVE using my 'nifty fifty' it's so much more lightweight than my other lens and the picture quality is great.

Perfect prime lens to have on the go. Takes sharp photos and is very light making the camera more comfortable to hold.

Awesome Product. It was the right lens for the job. The Sales Associate was very helpful and had the answers for my many questions. I will be back for more equipment as time goes on.

Bought as a gift for someone, but according to them it was a perfect upgrade from the standard lens that came with the camera I bought for her. Can’t speak from experience but I can say she loves it, and that’s all that matters.

If you are a Canon DSLR shooter this nifty fifty is a automatic must have lens. For the price and f/1.8 for wonderful bokeh. You really can't go wrong with this lens

You can’t go wrong with this lens. I call it the nifty fifty because it’s small and easy to use. Makes great photos! Everyone doing photography needs this lens. It’s great!

Don't let the price fool you. This lens is great for beginners and pro's alike. It's super affordable. I have it as a back up to my 50mm 1.4 Lens.

The lens is fantastic when you are doing portrait photography. The lens's automatic focus correction works excellent as it can adjust to focus on the object you're pointing your camera to. The size is very convenient to fit into your bag. The price is very reasonable and affordable. It was ready to roll straight out of the box for your photo shoot.

This lens is perfect for portraits and shots where you want a blurred background. I'm a beginner, but with this lens on my t6i I get great photos very easily.

I was debating between this and the EF 40mm. I finally decided on this as it is a f/1.8 and the 40mm was f/2.8. I am very happy with my choice. The f/1.8 does make a big difference especially with the portraits. Its a good lens for video too as it is STM. Only one thing about shooting video on the 50mm is that your range is locked to 50mm only, no zoom. So keep in mind if you are buying this lens for video.

This lense was the perfect in between lens for portrait photography It worked perfectly The pictures came out crisp and clear and the price was excellent.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this lens. It is my go-to for nearly every photo session I do.

A must hace for starters and beginners. Great quality at an affordable price, it is a life changer.

New to photography and it is difficult. This lens has taken my best pictures, and is my go-to for indoor pictures of the babies. You really have to do your research before you spend the money on a lens- I've got 3 already, and am still trying to figure out how to get great shots. Do yourself a favor and learn the camera first, then start buying lenses when you can't get what you need from the lens you start off with. I've already spent as much on lenses as I did the camera, and I can't return any of it without taking a loss for restocking.

from beginners to advanced photographers, the nifty fifty is a must have lens. Whether you shoot on APSc or full frame, the 50mm 1.8 is an unbeatable tool. Very small and lightweight, doesn't take up any room in your kit bag, and doesn't add any extra weight or bulk either. Pictures look great straight from 1.8 and only get better when stopped down. Probably not the greatest lens to have on something like a 5dsR, but then again, someone with that camera probably isn't looking at this lens

This lens is AMAZING so glad I purchased this. It is so easy to use and gives great bokeh to your shots even in auto settings. Fits perfectly on my rebel t5i

Why would you need this lens: • If you only have the kit lens, this lens is going to be your best friend. • It will improve your low light (indoor) photography because of the f/1.8 aperture that gathers more light than the f/3.5-5.8 kit lens. • Any other fast prime lens will cost upwards of $300, so this is a great value for what you get. It truly is the heart and soul of budget photography. • STM motor means quiet and smooth focusing for video, which would be unusable if shot with the loud kit lens.

Works amazing on my Canon t100 camera. Great quality shots, easy to use.
