Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens is rated 4.9 out of 5 by 16.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Small, sharp, affordable, versatile I bought this lens with my R6 mk2 as an alternative to my RF24-105 (which is also great, just big) for when I want a smaller lens and a wider aperture. It’s more than sharp enough for my usage and in some scenarios renders bokeh in a characterful almost vintage way wide open. When stopped down the lens becomes as sharp as some L lenses I’ve used which is especially remarkable at the price point. In some scenarios the lens almost has some “3D Pop” as some people say. The size and weight is also very convenient, when I’m doing street photography, the small size makes the lens not intimidating to the general public so they don’t feel intimidated by it which is a common thing with large lenses. Overall, very nice lens in general and especially for the price. Would recommend to anyone in the RF system.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great image quality on a budget This is a great lens, particularly for beginners. Given its 1.8 aperture it's easy to experiment and get those blurry backgrounds without beaking the bank. The image quality is great, and it is easy to carry everywhere because it's small size.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nifty by name, Nifty by Nature: The Nifty Fifty. Began my journey with this prime and couldn't think of anything better. The depth of field and length pushed you to get creative as you learn your camera. The value is superb at this price point as well. A must have in the kit.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Simple but great! Bought while borrowing my friend's camera for a month. It was an excellent lens for the price I paid and definitely holds it's own against higher cost lenses in my professional work.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from great value lens With only a 18-200mm lens for my EOS40D, I was looking for a simple fixed lens for general photography. The Canon RF 50mm does the job perfectly, at very good value.
