    a lente é otima, mas requer uma certa habilidade, calibrar configurações, e ela deixa tudo que está longe mais perto, para fotos de corpo todo, tenho que me afastar muito.

    Es un buen lente al precio. Obviamente hay lentes con mejor apertura pero estan mas caros. Este hace su funcion de manera adecuada.

    I waited three years to buy this lens because I just wasnt sure if I could handle a fixed lens. Big mistake. I could. This lens is AMAZING. Buy the lens. I literally cant say enough good things about it - its light (which is wonderful because DSLRs are heavy enough), takes WONDERFUL pictures, and is totally worth the price. I will say that if youre trying to take pictures of, say, rooms... probably not the lens for you. YOU are the zoom, and unless youve got a big room, you cant get far enough back to get the whole shot. On the other hand, if youre shooting details... it works great. Im going to take some bookshelf pictures in the morning and Im psyched to play with it. Oh, also... I just said it but you cant zoom without physically getting closer. So things like a sea turtle release (from personal experience) or something like an event where youre restricted as to how close you can get... not the lens for it unless youre right at the perfect distance.

  • Muito bom

    You cant beat this lens for the price - what a great buy. With the 1.8/f, it works really well in lower light conditions and allows you to blur the background to create that nice depth of field that draws attention to your subject for videos or photos. I use it with a Canon T3i and 80D.

    Get it!

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.

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.
