    Great update to the nifty fifty. I will say the price isn't a comparison to the original as this definitely has the rf price tag on it. But definitely feels like a higher quality lens.

    having a 50mm lens is a must if you’re at all into photography. This lens takes amazingly crisp photos while not breaking the bank. Of any lens to get, I’d recommend this.

    Got this RF lens as my first one ever as a beginner photographer. The f/1.8 aperture captures so much light and works great in dark areas. The bokeh is good and focus is sharp.

    Solid starter lens for anyone looking to play around with their new mirrorless camera. It's definitely better than the kit lens that came with my R6
