Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM Lens Review
The Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM Lens is currently Canon's fastest 28mm lens . And the only wider angle lens that is faster (wider aperture) is the Canon EF 24mm f/1.4L II USM Lens . My first thought upon removing the 28 f/1.8 from the box was that it was very similar to the Canon EF 20mm f/2.8 USM Lens...

Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM Lens Review
Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM is one of the two (the other one being EF 28mm f/2.8) 28mm lenses in Canon's modern lineup. The lens was introduced back in 1995, and currently remains the fastest consumer oriented (read non L) wide angle offered by the company.

REVIEW: Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM Lens Review
Handling and features This classic wide angle prime from Canon provides a wide angle field of view, fast, silent focusing and a bright f/1.8 maximum aperture. With this lens costing around ￡380, could it be the perfect budget solution for hand held low light shooting?

Canon EF 28 mm f/1.8 USM
One of the oldest lenses in the Canon's current line-up is an EF 28 mm f/1.8 USM model, as it was launched on the market in September 1995. Why the company doesn't see any need to introduce its successor
Pros:
- good build quality
- very good image quality in the frame centre (apart from the maximum aperture)
- slight distortion
- low level of vignetting on APS-C
- silent and quick autofocus
Cons:
- weak image quality at the maximum relative aperture
- low resolution at the frame edge of an APS-C and full frame sensor alike
- quite significant chromatic aberration
- huge coma
- unsatisfactory accuracy of the focusing mechanism

Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM review by DanSlr
I recently got this after thinking about buying it for at least one year. After reading the reviews I decided to go for this one instead of the Sigma 30mm F1.4. This lens have been "glued" to my Canon 7D after I got it. The feel and "fun factor" of this lens is huge.
Pros:
- "Normal view" for a APS-C camera
- sharp
- excellent bokeh
- lightweight compared to zoom lenses
- excellent built
- great film lens
Cons:
- Some "travelling" of the auto focus
- difficult to focus in low light

Excellent Normal Lens for 1.6x crop DSLR
I bought this lens to go with my Canon 40D (1.6x crop). With 28mm focal length (equivalent to 50mm on full frame sensor), it had been served as my all-purpose lens since day one. Of course, 50mm f/1.4 on 5D are far better combination.
Pros:
- Lightweight
- fast/noiseless USM focus
- sharp comparing to zoom lens
Cons:
- Not sharp enough especially at f/1.8, has to use f/2.8 or above
- Wish it has larger aperture like the Sigma f/1.4

Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM - APS-C Review / Re-Test
The Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM disappoints on the APS-C format. It is a full format lens yet the border quality leaves something to be desired even when stopped down. The fairly heavy amount of lateral CAs reduces the subjective quality perception even further.
