    Silencioso y muy bueno, el acabado del materia se ve un poco simple, pero cumple con su funcionamiento, ademas el precio es el mejor... Llego mucho antes de lo esperado

    Great lens!I actually bought the camera and it came with NO lens at all, lesson learned but this lens is the only one I have and its perfectly okay, this is the perfect lens for almost any distance. I use the Auto Focus on the camera and the shots are perfect, close or far away...it just works.

    great lens for such a low price. avoid f/1.8 cuz it is not sharp (at least indoor). yet i have switched to a 35mm, cuz 50mm on a crop body is bad for indoor shooting situations -- you will capture the face of a subject but lose all the context in the pictures (e.g., the surroundings). when you are indoor, you dont have much space to step back. it is good for outdoor use. help capture a subject from distance (say, kids playing on the playground).

    i didnt really understand how much more clear the pics would be, and just plain better the pics in general are. you need this its much better than a kit lens. huge difference!!!

    I love this lens. Even though I now own some fancier, more expensive lenses, none of them can beat this one at its 50mm focal length, and certainly none of them can beat it at its price! It is tack sharp, it lets in a ton of light, it lets me shoot indoors at reasonably decent shutter speeds without a flash, it has terrific bokeh, and it is very lightweight and compact. IMHO, this lens should be in the bag of every Canon shooter, and should be the first lens anyone who is looking to upgrade from a kit lens should buy. You really cant go wrong owning one of these, and it will amply demonstrate just how much better than a kit lens a lens can be!

    Again I love this lens. Its great for a beginner and it takes great shots! A great lens for someone starting out!

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.
