Excellent for portrait work and creative shots

Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2020

Verified Purchase

I admit I was slow to jump on the bandwagon for purchasing a 50 mm lens and purchased this to see how often I would use it before making the investment in a brand name lens for my Canon camera. But out of the box worked amazing. They say it is better to invest in good glass than fancy equipment for your photography and I tend to agree. But for the price this lens is well worth the money spent on it and arrived quickly and well padded. Came with everything I needed to put it on my camera and start shooting with no need for anything special added to the mix. No conversion adapter, no special filter required, snapped onto the body of my canon and I was ready to shoot. A little loud in the focusing but using my smart phone was easy to focus in what I wanted and get some truly amazing self portraits with. Prefer to experiment with my own images before I take any new equipment to do a clients work. Am very happy with my purchase and would recommend this is a necessary lens for a beginner photographer to learn more about their art and get some amazing shots with.

Stop Agonizing and BUY THIS LENS!

Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2015

Verified Purchase

This lens is my favorite in my collection and works amazingly well on my Rebel XT. I thank myself repeatedly for purchasing this when I get a shot that just blows my little mind. If you are really agonizing over purchasing this or the real Canon 50mm equivalent lens like I did for months, stop mistreating yourself now. Order this lens ASAP and stop punishing yourself for NOT buying a Canon lens. You're worthy and the first time you see what you captured, in all its detail, your smile will remind you that you did a great job.

The quality of photos you will get for a mid-$50 lens will quickly put your mind to rest. Seriously. I could really care less that the lens is "lesser quailty built" than the Canon version. I do not purposely endanger my equipment because I need it and I do not have a backup. This is not a pro lens and I would expect that for $50 there has to be more plastic than metal. If anything, to me, this is a starter lens to evaluate what one can produce with this focal length and evaluate if you want to get the better built one from Canon. When you put this lens on, you probably will be like me and leave it on a majority of the time because it is a great walk-around lens and also delivers awesome portrait shots.

The only problem I ever had was one time it would not auto-focus shortly after my purchase. Not sure what happened, but I removed it carefully, slid the switch for manual/auto a few times, re-mounted it and it was fine. It hasn't happened since.

Also, it's a prime lens so you will have to make the mental change that there is not a zoom capability in the lens and you must physically get closer to subjects, or move further away. Some people may not understand this at first, or may not be able to physically move. So if you are looking for a zoom built-in, this lens does not offer that capability.

Finally, make sure you remove all clear plastic lens covers before you begin to use the lens! The plastic on the internal side was a bit of a hassle to remove with larger fingers in action and I almost did not see it on the glass at first.

Hope my words helped you and maybe even persuaded you to get off the fence and just buy it. I am very happy with mine and it's been on my camera almost exclusively for 5 months now.

Decent Lens for the Price.......

Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2016

Verified Purchase

I am a professional photographer and had a failure in one of my high end lenses at the most inopportune time. I sent my "L" lens off to be repaired and needed something to replace it until I could get it back. After a lot of research I just couldn't find anything better for the limited amount of money I could spend. The ratings were good but I just couldn't believe that this would give me the quality I needed. Having no other options I ordered it anyway to fill the need.

What a pleasant surprise. After a minor glitch (my fault, explained below) I found this lens will give me crisp clear focus and colors. It is an excellent lens for those who cannot afford the top of the line lenses that will last forever but take forever to pay for.

This lens is good for probably a year of continual medium to heavy use and then just throw it away and buy another. It is made of plastic and needs tender loving care to hold up for any amount of time but I think you will be pleasantly surprised at the quality of photos you can get from this. If you have a limited budget and need a lens that will get you those low light photos then buy this. Yopu won't be disappointed. Just be careful on banging it around.

Now a little help and the "glitch" I mentioned. When this was delivered I handed the box to an associate and went to a meeting. I got a call that the lens was horrible and the best focus was slightly blurry with a halo around everything. My initial reaction was that "You get what you pay for". Upon my return to the studio I grabbed the lens and put it on a different body and got the same result. It looked like I was shooting through a thin film of Vaseline. Upon closer inspection I found that my associate had removed the protective plastic sheet from the front glass of the lens but not the small one on the back glass. (think of the plastic on the front of a new phone) If you remove both piece of plastic you should get some pretty good photos.

Just as good as namebrand but cheaper

Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2019

Verified Purchase

I'll admit, I was a little wary of getting an off brand lens but reviews made me go for it. This is nearly 100 bucks cheaper than Canon, but just as good. When you're not used to a prime lens it does take some getting used to. The picture of the black floppy eared was my first picture with this lens about six months ago, you can see it's a little off focus of the eyes. Completely human error. The other pictures are my latest and once you get the hang of it, this lens is amazing. I know it's usually recommended as a portrait lens but it works just as well for action shots (and I shoot dogs, so 85% of mine are action). It blurs and bokehs the background SO beautifully. That third image of my dog running would not be so focused on him, he'd probably be blurry if I had been using my original lens. The other pictures are to show how well the lens focuses on the subject, even with twigs or trees in front, they're beautifully blurred and the subject stands out. This is my go-to lens for sure.

Great for an amateur

Reviewed in Canada on January 21, 2022

Verified Purchase

Very good lens for price. I am not a professional photographer, so I can’t compare its performance to high end lens. I certainly hear it when it autofocus’s; however, it is not bothersome. The focus time and picture quality are fine, but I have only been doing still photos. The craftsmanship seems to be good: good weight and feel.
Overall, very happy with this purchase.

Great value, auto focus a bit slow

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 5, 2019

Verified Purchase

I've very happy with the image quality from this lens. The F1.8 Aperture shows great depth of field.
The only disappointment is the speed of the auto focus, it's quite slow, fine for most portraits and landscapes but it struggles to keep up with any action shots.
Overall great value.
