Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens

The Canon 50mm f/1.8 STM is the best value for money lens and a must have for all Canon EOS users. The new 50mm f/1.8 replaces the 50mm f/1.8 II lens and features a stepping motor (Gear-type STM) for fast, smooth and near silent autofocus.

Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM lens features:

Great low light performance.

The lens features a large maximum aperture of f/1.8 to provide spectacular bokeh, as well as great low light performance. At maximum aperture the lens captures about four times as much light then a conventional kit lens at max aperture.

Mounts and focuses on all full frame and cropped (1.3x and 1.6x) EOS DSLR’s.

The Canon 50mm f/1.8 STM will mount and focus on all Canon EOS DSLRs. Mount the lens to an EF-M to EF adapter and it will even fully operate on EOS M mirrorless cameras.

Silent, fast and smooth Autofocus.

The new Canon 50mm 1.8 lens utilises a stepping motor to provide fast and near silent focusing; instant manual-focus override; and Movie Servo AF functionality for smooth and continuous autofocus during video recording.

Spectacular optics.

The lens features a 7-blade diaphragm (up from the old 5-blade) to provide even better soft bokeh; and optimized lens coatings helps to reduce lens flare and ghosting for improved image quality.

Compact and lightweight.

The fixed focal length do not just provide improved optics, but also reduces the lens weight and dimensions to make it ideal for travel and everyday photos.
