Customer Ratings & Reviews

Stunning quality! Highly recommend to anyone starting out in photography

I was a lil scared to get this one but it’s worth it.

Great lens with great portrait capabilities would definitely recommend if it’s your second lens and want portrait photos

I really like to take all my portraits in any wedding photography, like the bokeh really nice with f1.8 it gives smooth it’s value for money.

I was expecting better but it is good for the price. Good for street photography, portraits, and landscapes.

I purchased this lens to pair with my R5, when I don’t want or need to drag along my bigger RF 24-70mm f/2.8 L Lens. It does a great job and the size is perfect.

One of the most inexpensive lenses in the RF line, this is pretty much a no brainer to buy. It basically sees what the human eye sees, so those are the shots you can expect. Works great on my EOS R8.

I have had two different Canon EF 50mm lenses in the past. Both were great lenses for the money. This lens is even better! I am impressed with the detail this lens provides as well as the quickness and quietness of the focus motor. I really can't believe that there is a better lens for a better price.

This is my first lens and it honestly works really great!

Nice and sharp for the price, this lens is the best to start at portraits, is useful even for professional photographers when they decide to travel lightweight.

It’s a good lens. It’s just not the quality I’d expect from a Canon product. The lens is functional and easy to use and attach to the camera.

The nifty 50. How anyone could ever live without this lens baffles me. I'm glad that Canon came out with an inexpensive standard prime lens to complement their new mirrorless series. I've been using mine primarily at f/8 and it is every bit as good or better than the EF equivalent.

Love this lens. Its go great for individual portraits. The quality is amazing. Exactly what I was looking for!

This lens is awesome. Super sharp. Portraits look amazing. The perfect portrait lens. Auto focus is not the fastest, but who cares if you are using for portraits. Get it while its on sale. Its worth every penny.

Great lens. Ended up returning as I found it way cheaper elsewhere. My best buy wouldn’t price match

Nifty-Fifty is the nickname for this lens. For the price, this lens is awesome.

I would absolutely reccomend this lens if you’re a beginner looking to upgrade from the camera kit lens. It’s a great price point too.

My favorite every day lens. I use this lens for almost every shoot I do whether landscape, portrait, or action.

Love the nifty fifty, has been great for portrait shots of my new baby and focuses fairly quick with my R5. Definitely high quality product.

Excellent quality. Beautiful images. My only complaint is the STM does not focus as fast as USM. But would it be worth an additional $2800 for the 50mm 1.2 because it has faster focus? Probably not, maybe if you are a professional that charges high dollar.
