Customer Ratings & Reviews

In my portrait photography workflow, I frequently utilize this lens, which I affectionately refer to as my “Nifty 50.”

My favorite lens to use for my photography business!

Great deal the check-in and check-out process was super easy and fast. Also the lens is fantastic.

Hood value for the money!!! Great quality of the price

I really like this lens. Great pictures and good price.

Overall i am pleased with the Bokeh and sharpness. Have yet to use it at night.

Canon lenses do exactly what I expect. Rf or Ef the description is always accurate

Nice budget friendly. Really great lens. Always nice to start with a nifty 50.

This is a fantastic lens, especially for the price! I use it to take portraits of my kids and get loads of compliments on the pictures - even from people who actually know what they're doing (unlike me). I love it!

Amazing, would recommend it for portrait photography!

Absolutely love this lens for my EOS R, did my most recent event and worked out so nicely

If you have the 35mm rf 1.8 there’s really no need for this lens to be honest. It’s so much near the same focal length as that lens. But for the price it’s worth the purchase. It depends on what you do if you feel like it’s worth it. Portrait work would be great! However, I thought I would use this lens more but it just sits and collects dust in my camera bag.

Very good lens for portraits, or if you do photography on animals/objects id recommend it

Can't beat this lens for the price. Large aperture good for low light and subject isolation. 50mm focal length gives a natural perspective. This lens is small and light but the optics are surprisingly good.

Great bokeh. Great lens for portraits and video. Would recommend.

Crystal-clear shots with fast focus—perfect for any scene!

Excellent product & a value-for-money purchase. We were helped by a friendly & helpful Best Buy staff, who provided clear & adequate details on the product. Although they didn’t have the lense in stock at the store the day we purchased the lense as well as a Canon camera, it didn’t take that many days for the lense to be shipped to our house. Very good customer service!! Keep it up!!

Great lens. It is very light weight and is great for on the go!

This lens is pretty sharp and I’m surprised. You def get your moneys worth.

Purchased this to pair with my R6. Just wanted to see how a native RF lens would work with the camera. I was using the adapter with my L lenses. This nifty 50 is insanely sharp and fast!! I wasn’t expecting these results for this price. It has me considering going all RF mounts at this point. But this lens. You won’t regret it!!
