Product Description
Compact and lightweight-an outstanding walk-around lens-Canon's EF 50mm f/1.8
STM is a great entry into the world of EOS prime lenses. With an 80mm effective
focal-length on APS-C cameras, 50mm on full-frame cameras, it's an excellent
prime lens for portraits, action, even nighttime photography. Its bright maximum
aperture of f/1.8 helps it not only to excel in low light, but also to capture
gorgeous, sharp images and movies with beautiful background blur thanks to its
circular 7-blade design. An updated lens arrangement with new lens coatings
helps render images with excellent color balance, plus minimized ghosting and
flare. Performance is brilliant, with a stepping motor (gear-type STM) to
deliver near silent, continuous Movie Servo AF for movies plus speedy, smooth AF
for stills. A redesigned exterior with improved focus ring placement makes
manual focus adjustments a breeze. Canon's most compact 50mm lens, the EF 50mm
f/1.8 STM has a rugged metal mount, plus an improved minimum focusing distance
of 1.15 ft. (0.35m) and a maximum magnification of 0.21x. Offering sharp
performance for the best in movies and stills, it's a fixed focal length gem-the
perfect lens for photographers and moviemakers to expand the creative
possibilities with their EOS cameras.
