    The nifty 50 without the price, took a picture with this one at one. Eight took a picture with the 50 mm one. Four and quite a few people guess the wrong lens to the picture. Just saying

    Excellent addition for low light portraits or a shallow depth of field. The 50mm is a popular size for a single-length lens and is very versatile with great quality images. Light and handy.

    Awesome lens. A but lagging on the auto focus but the f1.8 more than makes up for it. Currently used to shoot high school basketball in the gym.
