    Loved this Xmas gift. Perfect for walking around. This indoor light improvement over older lens is amazing. It may be my new R6 but well worth taking a chance on.

    “Nifty 50s” have always been the best bang for your buck lens. Abberation is kind of noticable at f1.8 but anything higher and it’s not too bad! Image stabilization is pretty neat!

    This 50mm for canon is amazing to use. I recommend to anyone into videography business. It is very versatile in use both in video and photography. It worth the price.

    Good lens for a beginner. But small things come in big packages. I love the way it shoots. It’s so clear, and catches every detail

    Since my camera won't be delivered for another 6mo (Jan 2023), I can only speak on how good the delivery was of my lens. Flawless.

    Best overall use case lens. Key points, great for portraits, great for street photography, doesn't break the bank and for the price, your ROI will thank you.
