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.

    This is a great lens for photographing close up and for blurring the background in your shots. It does not disappoint.

    I have not had a chance to try this lens out yet, I'm confident it will be at least a 4 if not a 5 if it works out as good as all the other reviews I read on it before purchasing it. I love taking very detailed close-up pictures of my flowers during the spring, summer and fall, so time will tell,.........

    Perfect for portrait photography. So far so good. I would suggest a back up lens for capturing further distances.

    Adequate lens--nice to have a wide aperture option

    This lens didn't have the magic effect on my photography that I had hoped for--ha ha! It is a little tricky to get used to focusing with the wide aperture lens. On the other hand, you are able to get a nice effect with the blurred background for portraits and close-ups. The lens works fine with my Canon EOS 60D.
