A wide aperture lens for high quality portraits and low light photos
With the EF 50mm f/1.8 STM lens you can easily produce more artistic and impactful photography thanks to a wide f/1.8 aperture that produces sharp focus on your subject and a beautiful blurred background.
A classic re-born
The EF 50mm f/1.8 STM replaces the popular EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens which was affectionately known for giving outstanding picture quality at an affordable price. This latest version gives the same stunning photo quality but with a fast, near-silent focus motor and a more robust build that belies its price.
The EF 50mm f/1.8 STM lens is great for:
Portrait
Perfect for capturing expressions on the faces of friends and family, ideal for weddings, events and parties.
Low-light
Perfect when you find yourself in darker conditions capturing nightscapes, firework displays or interiors.
Everyday
Capture life as it happens in front of you from the streets of your town to capturing the emotions of events.
Artistic and impactful photography
The wide f/1.8 aperture of the EF 50mm f/1.8 STM gives you the ability to bring your subject into sharp focus and blur the background. Photographers refer to this as a ‘narrow depth of field’ and makes your subject stand out which is great for portraits, as people become the clear focus of your shot.
Let more light in
The wide f/1.8 aperture lets in more than 8x the amount of light compared to the standard zoom lens that is provided with your EOS*. This results in sharper images with less motion blur and reduced need to use flash in dimly lit conditions so you can easily capture the atmosphere of a low light environment.
For portraits and everyday use
The 50mm focal length allows you to fill the frame with your subject from a comfortable distance making it a great lens for portraits. A similar perspective to the human eye and its compact size make the EF 50mm f/1.8 STM a great everyday lens to always carry with your EOS camera.
Sharp focus for photos and videos
The near-silent STM (Stepping Motor) technology focuses extremely quickly when shooting photos, so you can react suddenly to capture fleeting moments. Creating high quality movies is easier with STM as it delivers steady and quiet continuous focusing, so your movies are smooth, and soundtracks only capture the surrounding sounds and not the noise of a focusing motor.
Features & details
Blur the background behind your subject to help them stand out -it's a great look for people pictures.
Near-silent STM focusing works quickly when shooting photos and more smoothly when capturing video.
The EF 50mm f/1.8 STM lets in lots of light, so you can keep shooting when things get dark -capturing the atmosphere of the occasion.
As a fixed, non-zooming lens the EF 50mm f/1.8 STM delivers great image quality -enhanced sharpness, more contrast, and less distortion.
Weighing in at just 160g, the EF 50mm f/1.8 STM is a lens you can always have with you.Angle of view (horzntl, vertl, diagnl) 40º, 27º,46º

sorted byAs mentioned, the autofocus can be little slow and noisy but at this price it’s absolutely worth it. Even more so if you haven’t yet got a prime lens. They do add a new experience to photography. And the huge boost in ISO and shutter speeds is a massive bonus, as has said
