Also, an STM motor affords impressively quiet and smooth autofocus performance and full-time manual focus override. Additionally, a configurable Control Ring lets you adjust exposure settings, including ISO, aperture, and exposure compensation, from the lens itself.

Hazel ★★★★★

Finally, a 50mm that’s actually pocketable—it’s so light I barely notice it in my bag, but the f/1.8 aperture lets me shoot indoors without a flash. The autofocus is snappy and silent, which made a huge difference for candid shots at a family dinner.

Henry ★★★★★

Shot a friend's birthday dinner in low light and the f/1.8 aperture kept everything sharp without needing flash. Really love how compact it is too, it barely sticks out from the camera body.

Hannah ★★★★★

The autofocus is impressively quiet and snappy for street photography, and the f/1.8 aperture gives a beautiful, creamy background blur that makes portraits really pop. It’s so compact that my camera bag feels half empty now.
