And as a bonus, this lens is the only lens in the EF system to offer an extra-small Micro Ultra Sonic Motor (USM) while still providing a full-time manual focusing option. Other features include a close focusing distance of 1.5 feet, a 58mm filter size, and a one-year warranty. Specifications - Focal length: 50mm

Very Sharp! |
|
This lens Is Very lightweight which is good if you are moving around a lot. The prime focus is very very sharp. I think that is my favorite feature about the lens. it is easy to operate and fast. For the price I feel like I got more than I paid for. I own a 200-mm L, and a 24-70-mm L lenses, and an image stabilized 17-85-mm EFS that are wonderful. The affordable 50 mm canon lens still gets pulled out of the equipment bag regularly. Good buy, fun lens! |

Incredible bang for the buck from Canon!! |
|
Better build quality than the f/1.8 and incredible price point with many of the attributes of the f/1.2 at a fraction of the price - this is my new "go to" lens when I want a lightweight, fast prime. It isn't the sharpest lens wide open, but stop it down to f/2 (and beyond) and you will be amazed. Great bokeh combined with fast AF for just over $300? I call that a deal any day of the week. As long as you aren't expecting "L-series" results I suspect you'll be pretty pleased with what Canon has to offer. Add the extension tubes for some incredible macro capability as well. I really enjoy this lens on my 5D. Highly recommended! |

Very fast & at a fraction of the f1.2's price. |
|
I really like this lens. Focus is quick & sharp. Can't beat it for the money. Try pricing the Canon f1.2 lens and you'll see what I mean. For a huge premium all you get is a tad more speed and questionable improved sharpness. You will get slightly improved weather resistance but for most of us that really isn't a big deal. |

In for a long-term relationship.... |
|
This was my first lens purchase other than the kit lens I got with my 30D. I've been using it for over a year now, and couldn't be happier with it. It's solid and fast, and is a real workhorse in low-light situations without flash--e.g., taking food shots in restaurants. Produces great portraits with beautiful bokeh. |

Love this lens |
PROS: Super sharp images, great in almost any lighting condition, fast, sturdy build. 50mm focal length is a good compromise for most intimate shooting situations.
CONS: 50mm too close for some situations, need to aim carefully (difficult to autofocus correctly without careful targeting).
