Love this lens! Excellent quality at an incredible price point. F/2 is wide enough for high quality bokeh and low light response.

It’s a great camera, I use it to take up close jewelry photos from about a foot away. This allows me a deeper depth of field and I don’t have to do any photo stacking. Solved a lot of my problems.

Oh. My. Gosh. As a (relatively) new photographer, I love this lens. I have really taken a fondness to prime lenses, but the 85mm focal length is definitely one of my favorites. This was a good value too. As I almost had buyers remorse, I did some additional post research 85mm focal length options and I am even more satisfied with the native Canon Lens.

Quality lens and macro functions are useful for product photography. Be sure to always check the little switch that limits the focus distance. Not having correct for your subject distance will make the camera hunt for focus indefinitely.
