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.

    Well worth the money, I was considering Canon's more expensive 50mm lens at first but I'm happy I went with this. This thing is great for portrait photography; great bokeh with the correct settings.

    My granddaughter has focused on photography and bought herself a nice camera but couldn't afford the 50mm lens. This was a B-Day present and perfect fit...she LOVES it! She is still experimenting and VERY HAPPY!

    Great portrait lens for the price. Creates a good depth of field. Only problem is soft focus on lower F-Stops.

    Great lens for "pro" portrait pics. I questioned whether I really needed this or not until I purchased it. YES!! A must for portraits. With this I have taken some awesome pics of my high school senior!

    I use this lens with the Canon T7i, the picture quality and the bokeh effect it produces is truly amazing. This is pretty much my default lens. Worth every penny, unless you can afford the f1.4 50mm lens.

    As someone who recently got into photography (spring 2019), this is a great lens for portrait pictures. It’s not loud too, and I like how clear the picture is too!

    Although I am using a crop camera the 50 fills my needs, it is like using a 80 mm, you can't beat the quality and speed for the price. Down the road it can be used in a full frame canon because it is a EF lens.

    I didn't expect to receive such a nice bokeh effect from this lens, but after using it up close to take pictures of collectibles I noticed it and was pleasantly surprised. This is very light prime lens and Canon made a good update with the STM version of this lens. It's not an L lens, but for the price, this is a great little lens. I use it with a Full Frame Canon 6D.
