Canon - EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Standard Lens - Black
- Model: 0570C002
- SKU: 7963106
Good lens...Love it...It gives a very nicely effect for blurry backgrounds (don't know the right terminology), and also it forces me to move to get the right spot to get everything in frame....I'm absolutely in love with the photos this lens allows me to capture, but if you are looking at lenses, keep in mind that this lens does not have the option to zoom in and out.
Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Standard Lens: Capture important moments in your life with this standard lens, which works with your compatible Canon DSLR EF-mount camera. A circular aperture with 7 blades helps you add creative background blur.

Nikon - AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G Standard Lens - Black
- Model: 2199
- SKU: 3188049
Best lens...Good deal...Offers a nice "Standard" view of your scene, nice fast aperature at wide open (f1.8) and closes all the way down to f/22 (depending on the body and the amount of light, among other things)....The only reason to jump to another 50 mm lens is the two f/1.4's give you 2/3 of a stop more light, as otherwise the f/1.4G is slower to focus and not as sharp until you stop it down, and when shooting wide open is subject to sagittal coma flare, and the f/1.4D's optical formula is from the 1970's and also needs to be stopped down.
Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G Standard Lens: A perfect everyday lens for any photographer, the AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G offers fast autofocusing combined with an integrated lens coating to deliver clear and crisp images. The wide-open aperture is ideal for low-light shooting and creating images with beautiful background blur.

Nikon - AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G Standard Lens - Black
- Model: 2183
- SKU: 9542328
Love it....smart buy...The 35mm focal length is perfect for indoors allowing the user to take in subjects, epecially where with a 50mm a wall would have stopped you from backing up any further for the shot, even head shots of people across a table from you as one review mentioned....But I keep this lens on my camera at all times indoors so I can finally catch those shots of the kids running around being adorable or doing something goofy and not have to worry about flash or overexposed pictures or out of focus pictures because the kit lens wasn't able to keep up or wasn't open wide enough to take a good shot.
Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G Standard Lens: Whether you're a beginner or professional, you'll love this compact, lightweight lens from Nikon. The normal angle of view captures approximately what the human eye sees, making it a great all-around lens. Plus, the f/1.8 maximum aperture is ideal for creating softly blurred backgrounds and shooting in low light.

Canon - EF 75–300mm f/4–5.6 III Telephoto Zoom Lens - Black
- Model: 6473A003
- SKU: 2823760
Great Lens...NOT BAD...quick and easy to attach, love the way it takes pictures from a distance and the look like you are right at the object you are taking pictures of....I used this lens the most so far on a camping trip and it allowed me to capture some wildlife pictures that I would have never gotten without it....Can't wait to see what Best Buy has for next Black Friday!

Canon - EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM Telephoto Zoom Lens for Select Canon Cameras - Black
- Model: 8546B002
- SKU: 1786128
Not bad...I like it...But over all I like this lens for a starter lens, but would recommend the combination lens over this one, if you have a choice and the money,but as I said this one came with the bundle....This, like all Canon lenses, is a high quality lens and with the focal lengths beginning at 55mm - this can easily be your "only" lens - replacing the typical 50mm with the added benefit of zooming smoothly to 250mm to get you right in the action.
Snap sharp, vibrant photos at a distance with this Canon EF-S 8546B002 telephoto lens, which features a 55-250mm focal length for flexible zooming and optical image stabilization to reduce the effects of camera shake.

- Model: SEL55210/B
- SKU: 3651038
Good len...good deal...I bought this with the idea that it was lighter and less bulky than the traditional DSLR, however I opted to go for the weather proof Olympus, nothing wrong with this camera, I am just into extreme conditions and realized this would not do it for me....One great thing about this lens is that it's compatible with the NEX and Alpha lines...you can also use with the E-Mount's but need an attachment....got this on a black friday deal with my sony A6000, haven't used it much.

It is ok....Great !...I would recommend anyone who owns a mobile phone to get there early pickup set of these lenses there are some you need to acquire in life and this is definitely one great product....The clamp that holds the lens onto your phone does not hold extremely tightly, so don't plan on getting too crazy with your phone with these lenses attached.

Canon - EF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM Ultra-Wide Zoom Lens - Black
- Model: 9519B002
- SKU: 6405162
Nice lens...Good buy!...However that isn't really the purpose of any wide angle lens, so as long you adjust the shutter and iso respectfully the f4.5 shouldn't be a problem....Closer to 10 mm gives the characteristic distortion wide angle lens are known to have and then 18 mm is the same as any basic 18-55 mm lens which isn't distorted.
With an STM (stepping motor) and focus mechanism, this Canon EF-S 9519B002 zoom lens allows you to record ultrasharp videos or capture crisp photos using your compatible Canon camera. The UD lens element helps you take highly realistic images.

Canon - EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM Standard Lens for Canon APS-C Cameras - Black
- Model: 9522B002
- SKU: 9057096
I love it...Love it!!...It allowed me to get the background of photos without having to move so far back like my 50 mm lens and it lightened up my photos without me needing to know how to use pro level features...I usually take portrait photos (and this creates beautiful bokeh) but this lens also works great for indoor events especially since the wide aperture allows a lot of light to flow in.
Capture stunning images of wide perspectives with this Canon 9522B002 EF-S wide-angle lens that features an aspheric lens element for high image quality from the center to the edges. The circular, 7-blade aperture delivers soft backgrounds.

Canon - EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM Telephoto Zoom Lens - White
- Model: 2751B002
- SKU: 9839236
Love it!...The Best...I knew I was gonna catch grief from the wife but when we hit the park to take pics and she reviewed them on the camera her jaw dropped along with mine the pics are phenomenal of the kids, the bokeah is off the charts people if you are waiting like I did for nearly a year just buy it you'll be glad you did....Never shoot below 1/125 shutter speed anyway so not quite sure how IS performs compared to non-is but it is definitely sharper than the non-is version.

Canon - EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Standard Lens - Black
- Model: 2515A003
- SKU: 9979969
Fast motor....Nice lens!...But in general the image quality is the best that you can get, a very very cool lens, the best of the best, if you are searching to take head shots only....The focus is crisp and fast, while being near silent for those times you want to play with hd video (most are loud enough to be perceptible in the captured audio).

Best Lens...Good zoom...Not as fine as a prime lens, of course, but for an all-purpose still or, especially, video lens, it's a good choice, albeit slightly pricey....I bought this lens because I used 35-135 which was not a digital lens and I could not be happier images are crisp and it is a good all around lens.

Great lens...Very good...while you could find more expensive long shot lenses, perhaps with finer picture, you will not regret the ease of use and good pics you get with this lens....The contrast and sharpness of this lens will easily remind anyone who has owned a Canon L or Nikkor pro lens of that level of quality and performance.
