    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!

    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.

    My first lens back in the day was a Canon nifty fifty. I'm glad Canon brought this out for it's RF line. Canon really needs some more reasonably priced glass. This little lens is compact and gets the job done for a great price.
