This is a very special 50mm lens. At f 1.2 it has a razor shallow depth of field which can be used to create incredible images. That said the f stop often needs to be selected to capture the depth needed to provide the proper split between what is or is not in focus. I've never had this lens miss focus but it's possible to have too narrow a depth of field. This is really a lens that can produce extraordinary artistic images. Highly recommended.

Very special lens that can produce wonderfully artistic photos

50mm is a must!

I couldn't be happier with this lens...so much bokeh! I absolutely love it.

Love This Lens!

I've reviewed this purchase twice already and not really into the constant emails asking me to review it again.  The lens is fine, the emails are not

Please stop

Always need a solid 50mm in your kit. The $75 standard version just isn't quality for final client products. Plus having this at a F1.2 is an incredible benefit for as much night-time work I do.

Sharp & and a staple lens

Heavy, expensive, only a fixed 50mm lens. Blurry background. Slow autofocus.

Way over priced.

My husband and I shoot 60+ weddings a year together, and this is my hands down go-to lens. It's great for details, portraits, landscapes--it really does it all, and has a sharpness and look that I love. If I'm worried I won't have enough room in a space, I reach for the 35mm, and if I want dreamy bokeh I go for the 85mm, but of all our lenses the 50mm gets most of my love. I don't typically shoot below 2.2 for the sake of sharpness, but in low light situations with enough room the 50mm really pulls through. Love it, chef's kiss, buy it!

A real one

LOVE this lens. It takes beautiful soft portraits with amazing bokkeh.

Portrait lens

Love love love this lens. Best purchase i have ever made.

Awesome Lens

Great product

Great Lens

I purchased this lens to use with my Canon EOS 5D Mark IV. The build quality is exceptional, and images produced have a gorgeous, dreamy look with a beautiful bokeh. However, if you are looking for a lens with ultimate sharpness, you may want to consider other options such as the Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM or the Canon EF 85mm f/1.4L IS USM. Also be aware that while using this lens at near minimum focusing distances (1.5 to about 3 feet, you will experience focus shift with apertures smaller than f/1.2 to about f/4 before the increased depth of field compensates for the focus shift. This is a function of the design of the lens, not a manufacturing defect, All in all, an excellent lens when thoughtfully used for the proper applications.

A great lens when used for the correct application

Must have

Even though,currently, I use a cropped sensor, I am still blown away by this lens! Focus is fast and sharp, colors are extortionately, and overall it has made my job so much easier! I don’t know how I lived without it.

A must have

Performs as expected. I won't give it 5 stars because A. the price is up there and B. I am not a reviewer of 50mm lenses and have limited experience. I do not recommend products unless I have experience with at least a few.

As expected.

Seems brand new to me!  It came double boxed with bubble wrap around both the camera and between inner and outer boxes.

Like New

Build quality is great, lens arrived looking brand new. It's far too soft in the center however, unless you stop down to 2.8. Returned.

Too soft

I love this lens! The photos are so crisp compared to my other 50mm. Also love the weatherproof feature on this lens.

Great lens!

50mm 1.2

Love this lens. No complaints whatsoever.

50 mm 1.2

So far this lens has been god mode for me. This is attached yo my Canon Eos r and its been working like a dream.

God like

This is a Fabulous lens for bokeh shots. Super fast in low light natural setting. Canon is my camera of choice. Adorama IS MY Favorite Camera and More Store!!!! They are fantastic!!!!  Great for portraits/weddings with that romantic feel. I want the 85mm 1.2 some time in the future. Get the 50mm 1.2 is well worth the price.

Canon 50mm. 1.2  is Great!,, Don’t hesitate!!

What is not to like about great lens? Super fast, prime lens. Canon quality.
I am a Canon man!!!! Adorama is my favorite Camera Store. My business History 
Proves it!!!!

Great Creative Tool!!!

This is my first prime L lense I have ever purchased. It really a good lense to start up if u guys love to do portrait and fashion photography. But because of the focal length. I don’t use it that much anymore. It a middle range. It really hard to let me get the good shoot I want if I have small area to work on. Just change the 35mm focal length. Is really good for the small narrow space for shoot. I would recommend anyone to test between 35 or 50 focal length. To see which focal length will suit you.

Middle range focal length

This lens is super sharp. So far I have used it to take graduation portraits of my daughter, prom portraits, and track meet photos. It blurs the background beautifully at the lower aperatures.

Amazing lens for portraits and detail photos.

Great lens. you might need multiple shots to get a perfect focus..until you figure out the best technique to get good focus when wide open 1.2

Great Lens with some learning curve

I have always loved this lens and have always either borrowed it or rented it. I finally grabbed my own a few weeks ago and it's by far my favorite walk around lens and artistic lens. I have used it on fashion shoots and for video shoots. No complaints here!

What a lens.

The 50mm is the fourth lens to be added to my red ring (L lens series) collection. I own the 70-200 f2.8, 85mm f1.2, 35mm f1.4 and now this amazing 50mm. It’s perfect because I have a small studio (18 feet long by 15 feet wide) which my 85mm can’t really work in and my 35mm is too wide - so the 50mm works perfectly in tight spaces. I find that I’m keeping the 50 on my body (canon 5D Mark iv) and I usually never switch it out. It’s fast, it’s crispy clean (even when wide open) and it’s the perfect focal length for my current workflow. I knew I couldn’t afford to splurge on another lens, but I am so glad I did!
