Features
One of the most versatile focal lengths available
The EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens from Canon pairs this classic lens design with enhancements to the AF system and physical design that make it both faster and smaller. Utilizing an STM stepping motor, this lens is ideal for both still and video shooting due to its speedy and smooth operation. Further benefitting video shooters, the STM motor also supports the Movie Servo AF mode on select DSLRs for precise and near-silent focusing. An updated exterior design includes a metal lens mount and a re-located focusing ring in order to accommodate the compact overall form factor. The 50mm f/1.8 is a classic, tested lens design, and thanks to enhanced autofocus and a svelte profile, this lens is ideal for everyday shooting in a wide variety of conditions.
The optical design of this lens incorporates optimized coatings that help to reduce flare and ghosting for increased contrast and color neutrality. The f/1.8 maximum aperture is effective for low-light shooting as well as for controlling your focus plane for selective focus shooting. Seven rounded diaphragm blades further enhance the look of out of focus regions in an image, making it well-suited to portraiture and creative environmental shooting.
-Standard prime 50mm lens is designed for use on full-frame EOS DSLR, however can also be used with APS-C-sized sensors where it will provide an 80mm equivalent focal length.
-Fast f/1.8 maximum aperture benefits working in low-light conditions and also enables precise control over the focus plane when working with selective focus techniques. Seven rounded diaphragm blades further contribute to a pleasing out of focus quality with shallow depth of field imagery.
-A gear-type STM stepping motor is incorporated into the lens' design to provide quick, smooth, and near silent autofocus performance. Additionally, this focusing mechanism also pairs well with EOS cameras featuring the Move Servo AF mode to enable continuous focusing performance when working in live view.
-Full-time manual focus override is available for fine-tuning your focus position for selective focus applications.
-Optimized lens coatings help to suppress lens flare and ghosting for increased contrast and more color-neutral imagery.
-An enhanced exterior design features a metal lens mount for durability as well as a re-located focusing ring to maintain a compact 2.7 x 1.5" form factor.

Good starter lense
An excellent choice for a starter who needs to upgrade their starter set.
It has a good aperture which means you don't have to have much light to do proper shots and the 50mm focal length brings fewer distortions to the shots. The downside is that you have to move away a bit from the model since it is a fixed one.
Great Purchase
Love this lens. Dont know why i didnt purchase a nifty fifty earlier.
Good Lens
Great lens for many different purposes. f/1.8 useful for night photography and low light work
Great lense
Very awesome lense, easy to use and great delivery service from PB TECH. Con would be it is stiff to take on and off the camera compared to other lenses but if you aren't changing between lenses a lot then this is totally fine. Used the product for a few months now. A very adorable lense for experienced and beginner photographers.
A great purchase
Great deal too 50$ cash back…
Very happy with my new lens and PB Tech customer service
Great service and price for the lens. Cheapest around with prompt delivery. Thanks for the support PB Tech in purchasing this product. Would happily return.
Great value
Great value, good sharpness and works well on both APS-C and full frame cameras. The STM autofocus seems slightly slower than ultrasonic autofocus on other lenses, but still plenty fast enough.
Great lens
This is great little lens, great for portraits, excellent price.
Great little lens

Happy Son
