    I loved this lens! However, after a few months of light use it fell apart. Several photographs friends have had similar issues with this particular lens. However, I was refunded.

    Super lens all around! Very sharp. Compact. An excellent portrait lens for cropped sensor cameras, as the field of view is the same as 80mm on a full frame camera. I have never found myself desperate for a 1.4f lens, and this is a great bargain.

    This lens must be defective. The images are not sharp and crisp. I DO NOT like it and would not recommend it. Im about 30 days out of the Amazon Return or I would return it. I havent been able to use it much since I got it the first week in December, but for the amount of photos I shot when I did use the lens, only a very small percentage were clear. I would love to return it and get my money back and buy a different lens, but I doubt that they will stand behind the product.

    Awesome prime lens, sometimes I find the auto focus to be a bit slow but other than that it’s awesome and a steal at the price

    The best cheapest canon lens you will ever buy. I had the first generation and decided to upgrade to the new one. Quieter and faster. Love it.

    Nifty Fifty...super fast, super cheap, super-average range. Perfect for indoor sports photography, and some outdoor high-speed, low-light situations.

The wide f/1.8 aperture lets in more than 8x the amount of light compared to the standard zoom lens that is provided with your EOS. This results in sharper images with less motion blur and reduced need to use flash in dimly lit conditions so you can easily capture the atmosphere of a low light environment. The 50mm focal length allows you to fill the frame with your subject from a comfortable distance making it a great lens for portraits. A similar perspective to the human eye and its compact size make the EF 50mm f/1.8 STM a great everyday lens to always carry with your EOS camera. The near-silent STM (Stepping Motor) technology focuses extremely quickly when shooting photos, so you can react suddenly to capture fleeting moments. Creating high quality movies is easier with STM as it delivers steady and quiet continuous focusing, so your movies are smooth, and soundtracks only capture the surrounding sounds and not the noise of a focusing motor. The EF 50mm f/1.8 STM replaces the popular EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens which was affectionately known for giving outstanding picture quality at an affordable price. This latest version gives the same stunning photo quality but with a fast, near-silent focus motor and a more robust build that belies its price.

From the Manufacturer

EF 50mm f/1.8 STM

Compact and lightweight—an outstanding walk-around lens Canon"s EF 50mm f/1.8 STM is a great entry into the world of EOS prime lenses. With an 80mm effective focal-length on APS-C cameras, 50mm on full-frame cameras, it"s an excellent prime lens for portraits, action, even nighttime photography. Its bright maximum aperture of f/1.8 helps it not only to excel in low light, but also to capture gorgeous, sharp images and movies with beautiful background blur thanks to its circular 7-blade design. An updated lens arrangement with new lens coatings helps render images with excellent color balance, plus minimized ghosting and flare. Performance is brilliant, with a stepping motor (gear-type STM) to deliver near silent, continuous Movie Servo AF for movies plus speedy, smooth AF for stills. A redesigned exterior with improved focus ring placement makes manual focus adjustments a breeze. Canon"s most compact 50mm lens, the EF 50mm f/1.8 STM has a rugged metal mount, plus an improved minimum focusing distance of 1.15 ft. (0.35m) and a maximum magnification of 0.21x. Offering sharp performance for the best in movies and stills, it"s a fixed focal length gem—the perfect lens for photographers and moviemakers to expand the creative possibilities with their EOS cameras.
