best lens in the bag

 

I never take this lens off. It is fast enough to catch kids without a flash indoors ; I have bought 2 of these as gifts for friends with newborns ; You won't miss the zoom

Canon 2514A002

 

If you are a starting hobby photographer with a new Canon camera, this is the cheapest way you are going to get a prime lens that is super sharp and has great low-light performance.

Great lens, especially considering the price. I've had this for months now and it takes excellent, sharp portraits with good bokeh. The thing that made me come back and write this review is it's awesome low-light performance. I took 100+ photos at a...

Obvious limitations are obvious, but this is a prime lens, so the only way to zoom in or out is with your feet. 50mm on a crop-sensor like mine can be a bit tight indoors; it is the equivalent to 80mm on a full frame. You'll have to back up from your...

Excellent Portraiture and Great Bokeh

 

This is a great lens for the price. This lens does exactly what it was intended for. An excellent addition to any photographer's lens arsenal. The low aperture (f/1.8) allows for beautiful bokeh in the background. This lens is a blackhole for light and...

Great first lens

 

This will give the user a huge step up from their kit lens (compact SLR). We use this on a Rebel SXi. Indoor photos are much nicer with a lot better lighting and depth. The lens is manufactured similar to a ket lens. Plastic and light materials, but it...

Good Len at the price

 

Yes, this is a good len for the Canon DLSR cameras. Though you cannot compare with the high end lens, it good for the beginners.

Excellent lens for the price

 

Zoom lenses are so flexible, however most of them don't have a big aperture for low-light situations or to create a nice depth-of-field (unless you are willing to invest many hundreds of dollars). This lens works beautifully in both situations, without...
