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.

    Unfortunately, I broke my other lens and it was out of warranty. So I replaced it. This is a great lens for portraits. The bokeh is great.

    Great lens. I am a beginner and this lens was recommended to me by fellow photographers. The pictures are sharp and can get that beautiful blur in the background.

    I bought this lens so I could get used to framing better, so far I really like it. Different from the lens kits, but makes you think more about composition. Works Great.

    I use it for everything! An employee suggested I get it because I was a begginer and I shoot wonders with it. If you have the opportunity buy it with your first camera.

    Been using my new lens for a few shoots. Been very happy so far. It captures great in low light. No zoom of course on a prime lens, but for the price it takes really nice pictures.

    This lense is great especially for the price! Would choose a 24mm lense before this one but that’s just cause I like shooting big groups in close areas.
