Customer Ratings & Reviews

For someone who is just getting into photography, this is a great starting lens, especially at this price point. All the reviews are true.

The ‘Nifty-fifty’, ‘Fantastic plastic” or whatever you want to call it is STILL the go-to portrait lens for millions of photographers. Can’t EVER go wrong!

Super dope lens for the price great beginner lens!

Great lens for the price! This focal length is my personal favorite for portrait photography. I spent so much on the R6 camera body, I couldn't afford to go all out for an expensive lens, so I opted for this one because I was used to using the 50mm 1.8 on my Rebel t6i camera body. I love it! It's a great lens if you're on a budget!

Love this lense. Its very great for every day photography. The qualities of this lense outweighs the cost

The lens to have in you kitty is what i would say Portraits are so easy with it needles to say that with very minimal effort they come out super good Yes its STM type but for the cost difference between USM and ISM for this u will never be disappointed

I got this for my Canon RP camera that initially came with the 24-105mm lense, which is a great lense, but nothing compared to this 50mm lense. The photos this lense puts out are so detailed and vibrant in comparison to the 24-105mm. Not to mention it’s a fantastic cost. Can’t recommend this lense enough for anyone with a compatible camera.

Great buy-for my new R8 shows excellent clarity easy to use. Great quality

Great walk around lens. It’s actually sharper than the 50mm 1.4 EF version which is nice. Easy recommend for people on a budget.

Great little lens. have been using it for sometime now and have been getting bangers with it. Light weight and easy to use

If you’re on a budget with your Canon RF mount camera, pick this “nifty-fifty” up. It’s a no brainer. So it doesn’t have IS. Use a tripod. Or purchase that big pricey lens ;) It’s a tool for those on a budget (and those that aren’t). And if you’re focused on composition and attention to detail in your movement, etc like you should be, you can create outstanding video/images with this lens. Don’t overthink you gear. Focus on your craft. Get it.

Amazing lens for the price and just as good as the prime lens.

This lens is a must have! Very affordable and still creates sharp images. Very easy to use and light weight.

Pretty great product for the price! I was looking to upgrade to a new lens for my canon r7 and I ended up buying this one because of the price and after watching multiple reviews comparing it to the other lenses I was looking at. It definitely takes a bit to get used to it since it is a fixed lens, but I think it’s a good step up from my kit lens. It is affordable and works great especially for a beginner or someone who wants a little upgrade.

I love this lens. I truly understand why people call it the nifty fifty. The staff at Best Buy were also very helpful and knowledgeable.

Do yourself a favor and get this. All the reviews are true, this lens is amazing. Just make sure to stand far enough away from the subject. Just search for sample photos and that is what you will be able to go.

This lens is lightweight, which is perfect for mirrorless camera use. Pictures are sharp and I like the control ring.

This lens is sharp and for the price point its essential for anyone's kit. It gives your photos a professional quality

It's a nifty fifty, and offers a great value in the otherwise expensive RF lens system. The image quality is excellent, even at f/1.8, though the corners are a little soft at the wide open aperture. The reason this earns 4 instead of 5 stars is due to two reasons. The first is it suffers from focus breathing. Additionally, the auto-focus motor is noisy, though fast and precise. If you've only ever shot on a kit lens, throw this into your camera kit with its low price and you will be very thankful you have it!

The product arrived in perfect condition and was very well packed, ensuring its safety. The shipping was extremely fast. Very satisfied with the logistics and the state of the lens.
