Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love the lens better than the camera it attaches to. This lens was a game-changer for my photos and videos. It makes everything look professional and works great in low-light environments.

The Canon RF 50mm lens is a must-have for any photography enthusiast! The image quality is absolutely stunning, with sharpness and clarity that bring your photos to life. The wide aperture allows for beautiful background blur and excellent low-light performance. It's a versatile lens that's perfect for portraits, street photography, and so much more. I highly recommend it!

RF nifty fifty is a must have for all RF mount cameras. Razor sharp and light to go anywhere and shoot with excellent Bokeh.

I recently bought my first real camera, so I'm not a photographer by any means. Based on a suggestion from a YouTube video that this is one of three lenses that are a must for the EOS R50, this is the first one I bought (other than the kit lens) due to the low price. I love this lens. I'm very happy with my purchase.

Nice compact prime lens. For the price, produces very clear crisp images. Used on my R8 and. Loved the result. Must have for any full frame kit.

Great value great quality awesome purchase so handy

Love my 50mm lens for my new camera. Perfect portraits everytime.

I have a Canon EOS R digital, mirrorless camera. The Canon RF 50 mm f/1.8 STM lens is an affordable, optically fast prime lens. At f/1.8, it is optically fast, and is my best lens for low light level photography. With a focal length of 50 mm, it can be used for most common situations. The lens is small and lightweight and has the RF ring to allow customizable control of the camera, e.g., aperture, shutter speed, or ISO. It is a great addition to my collection of Canon RF, EF, and FL lenses.

If you want a perfect starter lens into the RF glass then this is the choice. The nifty 50 gets it's well deserved attention as always! Perfect for portraits (photo & video)! If you could only buy one lens and get away with a lot from then the 50mm is the way to go. Can't beat the f/1.8 either. Just overall quality lens for the price.

Great lens for the Canon R-series! This is a very affordable, always classic lens to add to your lineup. The Nifty 50 is something every photographer should have. And at this price, you can't help but get one! With the new RF line Canon has made some great updates and I feel like their lenses are definitely just as important of feature updates as the camera bodies. This new lens has the great option of the control ring or focus ring, a very sturdy construction and light weight to make it a no-brainer.

Sharper images, greater debt of field and overall quality pictures. Light weight

Can't beat it for the price, a must have if you want to travel light and get some decent low light shots.

This lens has helped me with getting the perfect shot for many portraits.

Great lens for everyday photography. Good for portrait pictures.

The bang for your buck is here. This lens produces sharp images on my R and with the 1.8 aperture I can get those fast shutter speed and freeze the action in lower light situations. At $200 this nifty fifty is one for the bag. It’s tricky to figure out but if you search online you can find instructions on how to set the front ring on this lens to adjust your ISO!

I only give it 5 stars because of the price point. It does lack in a few ways but for the price, and size. It is a must need ESPECIALLY for new people in photography.

Very good clear lense for portraits. Definitely recommend.

Ultra portable and easy to use. Amazing portraits with this lens. Couldnt ask for more. Get the RF series over the EF. You’ll be happy you did.

Great price for the first lens you should buy after getting the camera. Takes amazing portraits and can handle lower light situations pretty well. Compact and lightweight, it makes a camera like the R50 feel ultra portable and sporty.

Great 50mm lens for Canon RF mount cameras. Plastic but light weight. Its become my main lense. Though if you have a crop sensor camera (ASP-C) this lens is equal to a more 85mm focal length. So theres that. But at its price on sale its an excellent value.
