I know why they call it a "nifty fifty"

I purchased this for a martial arts demo shoot in front of green-screen (amateur experiment, I'm a video guy). Of course, this was the entry-level "taste" of what good lenses can do for you. Just like my first taste of good single-malt scotch ruined cheap booze for me, I can never go back to kit lenses or zooms after this.

For anyone ready to move past their kits, this is an inexpensive way to experience better glass. You won't go back either. Just be wary of too wide aperture and where you are focused. You can lose that point quickly if your subject moves a lot (like a karate shoot) but you will love what you can do with less mobile subjects when the background melts away yet their flyaway hairs are still sharp.

Perfect!

Awesome prime lens. I literally put it on my camera, switched it to auto-focus and snapped this pic of my dog. Beautiful bokeh. Can’t wait to shoot some portraits.

Best Budget Lens

I ordered this from Pixibytes yesterday and it came in the very next day, I must've gotten lucky but thank you! First off I did some research before I bought this lens and after seeeing a couple videos and reading through the reviews, this is by far one of the best lens you can get if you are starting photography. It's very good for night photography as well since you have an F-Stop of 1.8. Messing around with the other setting as well will really help you out in low light situations! Def recommend this lens !

Still giving it 5 stars bc of Amazon service.

I ordered this brand new. The first one that showed up was NOT brand new and I was not happy. I called Amazon and they sent me a brand new one right away. They gave me more than enough time to return the other one as well. Their service was excellent. The camera does exactly what I wanted it to. It’s a great camera for the price. My wife loves it and we have taken it with us on a few trips already

Wonderful lens

An excellent quality lens for a reasonable price; fast and silent focus, very good brightness; works perfectly with an adapter on the Canon M50; ideal for portraits. Very good investment.

Don’t know why I waited so long to get one

For $100? Are you kidding me? This lens has been phenomenal. I can’t say enough good about it... the bokeh is nice and the auto focus is fast and no hunting. A must for photographers on a budget but needing more than the kit lenses.
Great “walking around” and “just shoot” lens

Great Fixed lens

This is my first fixed lens for a SLR camera, it has a great f1.8 ability to give great depth of field shots. Good quality lens for the money. Focus motor is nearly silent, which makes it great for videos. Great addition to my lens.

Awesome lens, would definitely recommend.

This lens is fantastic. I love the crispness/sharpness of the photos, they just pop. The focus seems to be very responsive and pretty quiet. My family can't believe how great the pictures look that I took with it at our 4th of July picnic. I would recommend this lens as a must have in your camera bag.
