Michael Topham finds out if Canon's new EF 50mm f/1.8 STM prime lens is a bargain for £129
The Canon EF 50mm F1.8 II is the least expensive lens currently available for the EOS system, and has been in the lineup since late 1990. It's a simplified version of the original EF 50mm F1.8 of 1987 (often referred to as the 'Mark I') which was supplied as standard with some of Canon's earliest 35mm EOS SLRs; however it can trace its lineage back a lot further than that, as the company has been making 50mm F1.8 standard lenses since 1959. Like its predecessor, it uses simple symmetric Gaussian optics with six elements in five groups, in a well-proven formula which is known to offer excellent correction of aberrations.
Photographer/Reviewer Dustin Abbott shares his thorough, real world review of the new Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM. Includes many sample images from the 50mm STM
It’s a small lens that goes large in value for money and still manages to deliver some great quality
