Got this lens today and immediately noticed the lightweight form factor. It is the lightest and smallest lens I have owned and makes my R6 feel like a point and shoot.
It is super quiet, and the control switch on the lens is really easy to use.
The pictures I got were incredible for the price point and the size of the lens. It doesn't compare to my EF 24-70 in any means, but I love the lightweight factor!
I would recommend to anyone looking for something compact or if you are looking for a good starter lens for your R series camera.

I originally purchased this lens to be used on a Canon EOS R in order to reduce weight when hiking. I have yet to use it for that purpose but was able to produce a fantastic Christmas card photo for my neighbors who were seated in their Irish Pub / den. The field of view was perfect and the image quality spectacular.

This lens is great. It’s most likely going to be the lens that I use the most because it’s lightweight, small and makes capturing the world around you look amazing with the extra wide shots. Definitely worth the money. This product will not disappoint you.

Compact and convenient

Takes excellent photos especially for close up shots, where it captures a surprising amount of details. Also performs very well for mid range pictures (objects roughly no more than 20 ft away). At long distances, the focus could be better. There is no fishbowling effect that is discernible.

This lens has been a great surprise so far. Its optics outperform its price which is all you can hope for in a lens at this price point. The convenience factor of its size also can't be understated. If you're considering this lens, grab it. You won't be disappointed.

I’ve been really have enjoying using this lens. With how small it is it I’ve been using my camera more. Focal length makes it perfect for street style photography. I can now comfortable carry my R6 around.

This lens is great, I use it all the time for both film and photography and I love how small and portable it is, it fits in my pocket. I do wish it was a little bit brighter, though.
