Due to the consistently good reviews and experiences that has this objective - in combination with the excellent price, I did not start a long time decided to purchase this lens.
After a few weeks of use, I can now report that I do not regret it!
Even in bad / little light I can with relatively low ISO, without flash, far better pictures than shoot with my previous lens (the standard 18-55 kit lens).
Due to the large aperture of 1.8 are the focus, and blur the rest, madness!
The autofocus is what I would not have expected from some other reviews, is not necessarily slow but rather (from what I'm used to) normal where he quite loudly actual but not so that you are disturbed about it.
Of course, if you actual better and, consequently, more expensive lenses used or prefer something more have- one is here rather wrong and should look at the 1.4er lens or even 1.2.
With these you can achieve an even better blur and the autofocus is quieter, faster and an image stabilizer is attending. But you are paying more than three times for the 1.4er (and when 1.2er one is then immediately in a completely different (price) class and I have questions- who that someone reads the Canon EF 50mm / 1: 1.2 L USM Lens überlegt- why they are here at all and read this ?!)
But anyone who wants to make good pictures without spending lots of money for this is the right place!
This lens is not for nothing that the No. 1 on Amazon and I can wholeheartedly recommend (well ... unless you want more- then of course I recommend the next best class).
