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.

    Great sharpness and a must have lens for your canon. I use it with the rebel t7i and the portraits are sharp.

    Really nice shallow depth of field, although you must be from a far distance. Really nice portraits and small figures.

    I saw immediate improvement in my photography with this lens. I am beginning to learn about photography and this lens made the images much more clear than the kit lens that came with my camera.

    This 50mm prime lens is almost unbeatable at its price point and a great little lens to have in your case. A prime in this size (50mm) is a versatile lens that is useful for many applications.

    Kept hearing this was the go to lens for beginners to have. I'm still learning, but such a change from the standard lens! Super crisp pictures and quality once you can get the focus just right haha

    For $125, I couldn't go wrong. The bokeh is very nice. I also have the Canon EF-S 24mm 2.8 and both will fit right in your pocket. If you have an APS-C camera, then this 50mm will be an 80mm equivalent.

    Got the lens but never thought this will give me the most sharpest pictures for the amount of money I payed for. I will get another copy. I hope will be good like this one.

    The 50mm lens is incredible quality at an unbeatable price. I use it on my Canon 70d & the photos are amazing. If you're looking for a versatile lens that is reasonably priced, this one is highly recommended!

    This is my first prime lens and it is a great addition for my Canon EOS T7i. Pictures are clear and have great detail. Autofocus is fast and quiet. For the price it is a great value.
