Because every shot matters, the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens is designed to elevate your photography experience. This high-quality, professional lens is a versatile tool, appealing to both novice and experienced photographers alike.

As a prime choice for everyday photography, the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens excels in capturing a wide range of subjects, from intimate portraits to expansive landscapes. Its standard length is specifically crafted for Canon's full-frame EF-mount DSLRs, but it also seamlessly integrates with APS-C models, delivering an 80mm equivalent focal length.

Experience the depth and detail that the bright f/1.8 maximum aperture offers. This innovative feature not only enables shooting in low-light conditions but also provides meticulous control over depth of field, allowing your subject to stand out against a beautifully blurred background.

Each lens element is treated with Super Spectra coating, ensuring minimal ghosting and flare. This results in superior contrast and color accuracy, particularly in backlit situations.

The integration of Canon's STM (Stepping Motor) technology ensures a swift, near-silent autofocus. Enhanced by advanced AF algorithms and a state-of-the-art CPU, the autofocus is not only silent but also pinpoint accurate. For photographers who prefer a hands-on approach, the lens supports full-time manual focus override.

Achieve stunning close-ups with a minimum focusing distance of 1.15 ft. (0.35m) and a maximum magnification of 0.21x. This feature makes the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens ideal for capturing intricate details.

The lens is designed with durability in mind, boasting a metal lens mount for increased resilience. The focusing ring has been strategically relocated to ensure the lens remains compact.

The rounded seven-blade diaphragm contributes to a mesmerizing out-of-focus quality, especially beneficial when utilizing shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques.

In the world of photography, the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens is your reliable companion, whether you're capturing timeless moments or exploring creative avenues. This durable, innovative lens is designed to bring your vision to life.
