Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens

• The bright f/1.8 maximum aperture allows for excellent low-light performance and creates beautiful background blur (bokeh), perfect for isolating subjects in portraits and artistic shots.
• The STM (Stepping Motor) technology provides smooth and quiet autofocus operation, particularly beneficial for video recording where silent operation is crucial.
• The optical design consists of 6 elements in 5 groups, including an optimized lens coating that helps reduce ghosting and flare while improving image quality.
• Weighing just 159g (5.6 oz) and with a compact form factor, this lens is extremely portable and comfortable for all-day shooting sessions.
• The minimum focusing distance of 0.35m (1.15 ft) allows for reasonably close focusing while maintaining the natural perspective of the 50mm focal length.
• The seven-blade circular aperture design contributes to smooth, pleasing bokeh when shooting at wider apertures, enhancing the lens’s portrait capabilities.
• Metal lens mount ensures durability and long-term reliability, an improvement over previous versions of this lens.
• The Super Spectra coating helps maintain color balance and reduce lens flare and ghosting, leading to high-contrast, sharp images.
