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 50mm is a pretty awesome little workhorse, the picture quality is impressive SPECIALLY for the price. It does suffer at times from small focusing misses, but when it's on, it is ON. I bought this lens in a pinch and honestly do not regret it.
