"True value for its Price"

The lens provides excellent auto focus for both video and still. I am using the lens in EOS-650D which gives an excellent clarity for portraits and closeups.
Pros:
  • Fast / accurate auto-focus
  • Nice Bokeh
Cons:
  • Lens Creep

Real beauty

Worth every penny, chose this instead of 50mm prime. its fully worth of 2K extra money... suggest you to go for this.. it produces stunning pics at f/2.8 compared to 50mm's f/1.5

I bought this lens as a walk-around lens. It is not as fast as my 50 1.2 but is much much lighter and most important, do not draw attention. It makes my 6D looks very discrete. It is also cheap for what it delivers.
Pros:
  • Small
  • light
  • small and light again..
  • Superb sharpness even wide open
  • Don′t draw attention at all...
Cons:
  • STM focus wont manually work in auto mode
  • In manual mode still has an delay, You cant operate focus if camera is turned off or if the lens is detached, making impossible to retract the front element, It is quieter than old focus systems but is still audible

Great Little Lens!

This lens just arrived yesterday and I think it will be just perfect for my purposes. I wanted a small lens to put on my 60D that had a large aperture ,a close focusing distance and did a decent job of rendering backgrounds out of focus.
Pros:
  • Easily Interchangeable
  • Fast / accurate auto-focus
  • Lightweight
  • Nice Bokeh
Cons:
  • Not Easy To Manual Focus

Less Is More

I have heard this lens described as cute, tiny and a toy. I suppose it is cute and it is very small but it is not a toy. The build quality is very good. It will add only 130g to the weight of your camera.

Great lens - small and with excellent image quality

I am using this lens with an SL1. This is a great camera and lens combination. I have the 18-55 STM which is also very good, but the size, image quality and small aperture of the 40mm makes it an excellent all around carry lens.
Pros:
  • Image quality
  • size
  • aperture
  • build quality
Cons:
  • None

Nice & Crisp walk around lens

Pros: Small form factor Pretty Sharp Pictures Cons: None Other thoughts: I am using it on both Canon 7D Mark II and Canon 80D... and the pics are coming out clean. I would say that this is a great lens for street photography. Doesn't add much weight to the camera body.
