Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens International Version (No Warranty)

The product is fine

Amazing lens. It is pretty wide so you don't have to move around. At 2.8 with high ISO, its good at night time also. Silent focusing compared to 50mm 1.8. And its very thin! I use it on a 5D, and its much better compared to the 50 mm 1.8. At night I sometimes miss the 1.8, but then the focusing is much faster on this, and silent as well, so in all, its a nicer buy. Plus with high ISOs, you are usually Ok. There is more noise, but then the added convenience is a good tradeoff. For a full frame, its a very sweet deal. Pictures are sharp, colours are great. I am getting peanuts for the 50mm, so I still use it sometimes when I know I would need the 1.8 but those occasions are becoming less and less.

A brilliant lens for anyone looking to up their photography game! Every photo you take with this lens between an aperture range of 1.8 to 3.2 will have the nice depth of field which makes the subject pop in any image. I had to do photography for my cousin's engagement and all I had in my arsenal were a Canon SL2/200D (crop sensor), 18-55mm Kit lens (28-80mm in crop sensor) and a 75-300mm telephoto lens (120-480mm in crop sensor). I knew very well that these lens and camera combination were not the best for a event photography. (trust me! I've tried! The results were not so great) and I was sceptical about renting lenses as I could not be as light headed as I usually am with my own lenses. So, I ordered the 50mm f/1.8 lens on 26th April, 2019 and got it on 27th April, a day before the engagement ceremony (Kudos to Amazon delivery). I tested the lens a day before the engagement and on the day of the engagement, 90% of the photoshoot was done with the 50mm prime lens with 18-55mm lens used only for wide angle group shots. The absence of image stabilisation is not an issue as the lens is light in weight. So, yes, the nifty fifty is a one size fits all kind of lens. However, my camera had a crop sensor (1.5~1.6X), which means the 50mm was actually giving me the field of view of an 80mm focal length. This meant that I had to physically move around a bit to get the framing right. If you have a full frame camera, 50mm would have the field of view of a 50mm. This field of view difference had me over thinking about whether to buy the 24mm f/2.8 (38mm in crop sensor) or the 50mm f/1.8. I finally pulled the plug on the 24mm, bought 50mm because of the 1.8 aperture and decided to compromise on the field of view. Also, the 50mm STM had 7 aperture blades which meant the bokeh would be nearly rounded. In the end, the pictures came out great and had that 'Professional Photographer Click' look to it, everyone loved it. This made the investment totally worth it. The only drawback with this lens would be the auto focus. While it is silent because of the STM motor, it is not the fastest. I did the entire day's photoshoot with Manual focus and the results were really good. So, I would suggest that you use this lens with manual focus only. So, in conclusion, if you are person who wants a relatively inexpensive lens with nice bokeh and depth of field, this lens is just hard to beat. (I will not be sharing photos from the engagement to protect the privacy of the people involved. But, I will share some unedited sample photos to give you an idea about the quality you get from the 50mm prime lens.)

L’objectif Objectif EF 50mm f/1,8 STM est tout simplement excellent ! Il est parfait pour les portraits, que ce soit des photos de profil, des portraits en buste ou même des clichés de petits objets. J’ai repris la photographie sérieusement depuis quelques mois avec un Canon 2000D, et j’ai réalisé plusieurs shootings en extérieur et en intérieur. Passer d’un objectif de kit à cet objectif change complètement la perspective et la manière d’aborder la photographie. Le fait de devoir se déplacer pour ajuster la distance et la composition est un vrai plus pour la créativité. Contrairement à un objectif de kit limité à f/4, cet objectif ouvre jusqu’à f/1.8, ce qui permet de magnifiques flous d’arrière-plan (bokeh) pour des portraits saisissants. J’ai vu d’autres objectifs de marques concurrentes sur Amazon, mais ils n’offraient pas le même système d’autofocus fluide et performant (STM). Je recommande vivement de choisir cet objectif Canon d’origine. Pour environ 30 € de plus par rapport à des alternatives, la qualité est irréprochable et cela vaut largement l’investissement. Je partage une petite photo de mon chat que j'ai pris avec lol. Rien à redire, je suis pleinement satisfait !

最高

このレンズは凄いですよ！ この価格で，この絵が撮れるのか・・・という感じです． 最近は，入門から高倍率ズームで，もしかしたら，その一本以外は使わないという人が多いのだろうか． そういう人に，この単焦点 標準レンズは手に取ってもらいたい．カメラの世界が変わると思う．
