Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens - International Version (International Version)

This is my new favorite Prime lens for portraits and street photography! I should have gotten this a long time ago. Its wide open aperture at f1.8 is so bright and crystal clear with very shallow depth of field and excellent bokeh. Im very surprised by how nicely built it is and full of functionality at such a good price. It's a steal! It has auto-focus and a switch to use the focus ring for manual focus or to control some camera functions. For videography, I like the STM feature for its so quiet and fast to acquire focus on moving subjects. I do have one thing that I wish this lens would have had also, and thats IS (image stabilization). This would have been the perfect lens for me if it was available. That's the only down side to this particular lens. That's why Im rating it at 4-stars. Overall, for the features and the price and the quality of pictures that you get from this lens. I would highly recommend this for novice and professional photographers on a budget.

I really like this lens! I'm using it with my Canon R8 and it's great for creating that nice blurry background. Photos come out sharp and it's perfect for portraits. It's small and lightweight, so easy to carry around. The autofocus is a bit noisy and it doesn't come with extras like a lens hood, but for the price, it's totally worth it. Definitely recommend!

Good quality versatile lens. Great for taking nice family outdoor portraits with good bokeh (background blur)

Great quality. Not wide angle at all if that is what you are looking for. The 1.8 aperture is amazing. If you're camera body handles higher ISOs then you can get some great low light, even night shots as long as there is some kind of light source like street lights or something. Great lens and a must have in the collection of your rf lens'. The nifty fifty.

The photos are sharp and crisp. I love the autofocus. It's quick and snappy. I'm new to photography, but I'm very pleased.

Do not buy anything from this company, "Makerting Jungle". I did not receive the lens, and the refund process has been horrible both with Walmart and with them. Their staff have been very rude and clearly demonstrated a lack of professionalism and curtesy. It's been about a week since I started the refund process, and I'm still waiting on them.
