    Great lens for a great price. Very sharp and you can’t go wrong with a “nifty 50”

    High quality superb lens!!!!!!!! This little guy is great. The autofocus is fast and the new control ring is a huge bonus. It’s not that much of a difference from the original EF canon 50mm 1.8 but it’s great to mount on my canon eos R6 without the adapter. Love it!!!

    This is my first fixed pancake lens. For the price I absolutely loved it. For anyone who just joins the Canon family. This might be the best bet for portrait shooting.

    Great lens for the price. Like really good for the price. I also own a much more expensive EF 50mm f/1.2 L and honestly this holds up well to it.

    Love this little cute lens. I have the big heavy 28-70 lens for clients and use this little lens for my family so it’s easier to take to the beach, family trips, etc. The canon r6 camera is magic so even this cheap lens creates beautiful sharp photos!

    Far Underpriced

    I've had this for a few months now. It's a vastly underpriced lens. If you have an RF mount camera body and want a small lens with outstanding rendering, color, and focus speed– this is the lens.
