It's Sharp.

Wait!!!! It's Sharp!!! Well, the review is for all those who are in dilemma between 50mm f1.8 and 40mm f2.8. On the spec sheet one would think that 50mm beat the hell out of 40mm, with it's larger aperture and better focal length for portraits.

Pictures are amazing and portability is great

Bought this impressive little lens with a Canon SL1. Makes my camera feel even smaller. Pictures are amazing and portability is great. Good at night shots and even better for portraits. Focus is not as fast and quiet as the new18-55mm STM that comes with the SL1, but its still a great lens.

Great value starter lens

This is my second of these. It is better value, better build, and picture quality than the basic 50mm Canon lens. It's a tough little thing and I use it about 80% of the time compared with my other lenses.

Compact and easy to transport

The 40mm is always ready for use, it is so thin it is almost a mirror cover, but whip it out and snap snap away, yes it may not be the best lens in canons line up, but sheer conveinence it wins hands down. It has good bokeh and can get quite close to a subject without distortion of the lines.

Amazingly Nice!

I bought this lens to go with the RP body (with adapter). Lens and adapter is shorter/smaller than the smallest RF mount lens offered presently. RP hasnt arrived yet, but on my 5DmkIII Im getting results far beyond the price of the lens. Almost perfectly sharp, corner to corner, wide open.

I should say this is a great value for what it is: a sub-$200, fast 40mm EF lens with well regarded sharpness stats even wide open. Where the EF 40mm f/2.8 STM is a huge letdown is in the realm of video. There is distinct and audible autofocus hum that is recorded on your video.

Sharp, compact and good value for money

Bought for my 6D so I could take it to work, have a compact light package but still being full frame. People might sniff at the fact the lens is only 2.8 but for most every day uses this is all you need.
