Many appreciate the background blur and depth of field it provides, as well as its lightweight design.

    Love the automatic blurred backgrounds on portraits. I didn't realize how far back I would have to stand for whole body shots but still love it.

    The Lens that comes with the camera is average. For Video and Photos this lens Canon 50mm F1.8 AF is the best. You get great clarity.
