Customer Ratings & Reviews

Excellent lens for portrait work. The f/1.8 allows great background blurring and the 50mm glass just sucks in the light, allowing low light-level shots without flash.

I took the plunge and bought this lens when I saw it on sale. It's a great lens for portraits, and the 1.8 aperture makes it a great lens to take almost everywhere!

best 50mm for the buck, crazy sharp, 1.8 is good for low light and to use for a shallow DoF and in my oppinion is the best lens to start with for a DX body, so you learn how to possition your self.

Awesome lens at a great price. I’m not a professional photographer but love taking high quality pictures. This lens makes it easy.

I currently have the kit lens and 70-300mm lens f4.5 and they both do ok in low light with editing but since purchasing this lens it makes my camera do alot better in low light situations and i can capture action without motion blur.

Such an affordable and amazing portrait lens! I have been having alot of photo session, and my photographs are sharp.

I read so many reviews before buying this lens. I am so glad I bought it. It is great for portraits and really brings out the details. Great price as well! Worth it.

Crystal clear images. It's my nifty fifty! Highly recommend as an everyday general use lens. Great in low light.

I absolutely love this lens. It is sharp and the pretty blurry background it creates is amazing. The price was right. The service in store was excellent.

This will probably be my most used lenses it looks to be higher quality when compared to the kit lenses that come with the camera

I have to say one of the best portrait lens for the money. f1.8 does the job you could get the f1.4 lens for dbl the money. Trust me this lens gets the job done.

Takes very good pictures even in low light. I bought it for night and low light. Very impressive.

Loved the lens for Bokeh and love it a lot. Fixed focal length with A/M & M focus adjustment of which I use A/M mode. Good results with portraits as well as landscape.

Easy to use and amazing quality, not much else you can ask of a portrait lens. Can't wait to add more to my collection.

it is an amazing lens overall, with the amazing background blur and low light performance it has suited me well!!

Probably my favorite lens. Workhorse for sure. Can’t recommend it enough

We purchased this lens and used it at a birthday party. It was clear and easy to use and we took many great and memorable pictures! We are very happy with our purchase.

Excellent lens for the price. Took my images to a whole new level as a beginner photographer. Much better option than kit lenses.

good complement to your 18 to 55 mm lens. gives excellent bokeh effects and works well in low light conditions.

A total must for any camera bag. Light, sharp, well built. Also the price makes it a no brainer!
