    Quality nifty fifty

    Bought this as my first lens to compliment my kit 18-55. I take a lot of street photos and family portrait types, this lens copes well with most situations! The focus is sharp and fast, bokeh is awesome and the quality of shot is amazing considering it's price. It covers so many every day 'walk around' sessions, and although mostly plastic it's so light on the camera. Shame it doesn't have image stabilizer but still copes well without. Well worth the money and would recommend to anyone thinking of buying one. 👍

    Works OK in autofocus mode if that is what you need

    This has to be the best value Canon lens ever. 50mm is a useful focal length. It may be me or this particular lens,but manual focus is dysfunctional, the lens works fine in autofocus but will not focus manually. You can eventually fine tune the focus manually after finding focus automatically.

  • Great Lens, Great Price!

    Always handy to have a nifty fifty in your arsenal and at this price you can’t go wrong! Great for portraiture because of the wide aperture and with this focal length on full frame, it’s as close to what the human eye sees as you can get. Perfect for making your images look natural. Only slight issue I have with it is it is not always as sharp as I would expect and can suffer from slight softening within the image, especially around the edges. Not always the case though and will depend on the lighting (I’ve found). Overall an amazing lens and one that you should definitely own!!

  • Nifty? Yes and inexpensive

    For a cheap 50 mm with an aperture of 1.8 for under a hundred quid it doesn't get much better. At this price I doubt nothing comes close. It is nifty and it is 50 mm! It is made of plastic , the focus ring is not buttery smooth but the results better its very little price. For this alone the lens is worth having your in kit bag.. small versatile and no need for flash indoors unless its extremely dark. Focus a little slow on the canon 700D but still fast enough for most shooters. I personally prefer manual focus most of the time however the lens does nail the shot in auto spot focus mode. Continuous focus hunts a little but it is not painful. Let's not forget the images are sharp, ( not razor but certainly above average) but tend to soften around the extreme edges. A little noisy focus motor wise but you can always go manual if for the quiet moments. Don't expect the quality to be amazing otherwise you'll be disappointed. All in all great value for money and a good start to prime lens collections. Its not called the plastic fantastic for nothing!

  • Great first lens after kit lens

    This is the first lens I bought after using my kit lens for a while. The low f-stop is very useful for low light, and was the biggest benefit of using this lens over my kit lens, personally; it meant I could drop the ISO and increase shutter speed without underexposing. Quick and quiet autofocus.

  • My new travel partner

    This lens is perfect for taking out and about on the streets of a city. Being a prime lens it lacks the ability to zoom, this makes it perfect for un-obtrusive street photography. If you point a long lens in a strangers direction they tend to get angry or upset. this compact lens gives you the abitlity to create crisp landscape photos or beautiful posed photographs.

  • Great value lens!!!

    The lens delivers great sharpness in photos and allows very wide apertures, great for portraiture. Really my only concerns with the lens is that it's focusing ring is in an annoying position and is very small and that it is clearly cheaply made, being mostly plastic and with a plastic EF mount but this is a minor complaint considering the low price.

  • Perfect!

    Thanks mate for canon 50mm 1.8 II and I didn't expect you include a Hoya Filter! Quality of the lens it's like a brand new!

  • Optically superb, not durable

    Beautiful sharp images, but very fragile complete plastic solution; ours broke just trying to remove a filter ring wouldn't happen with metal body lens. Will be replacing with same type and being more careful, very good value for money and output comparable with professional lenses.
