Glad to have added this lens to my collection
Out of all my lenses, this is one of my favorites. Not as sharp as I thought it was going to be but that could be on my end. I think my camera needs to be calibrated. You can get a great dept of field with this camera and takes beautiful portrait photos.

One of the best lenses
It's one of the best lenses that I have bought. The picture comes out very sharp and crisp. Would definitely recommend this lens if you like to travel and visit new places this is a good basic lens that can help you get decent pics.

Pin sharp
The best non L series lens I own! The image quality for the price is phenomenal, I use it for shallow depth field head shots and detail shots on vehicles.

Great lens for the price
I use this lens for portraits on Canon 70D (APS-C). While I haven't used it a lot yet, it seems to produce great images. Very happy with the purchase.

Amazing lens!
Great lens, especially for the price! Auto focus speed is fast and accurate. Bokeh is smooth and beautiful! Light weight but sturdy build. If you're thinking about getting this lens, don't delay! It's definitely worth the asking price!
Pros:
- Fast AF
- sharp
- beautiful bokeh
Cons:
- No Hood included

Affordable FF portrait lens
This is the last relatively cheap prime in Canon's range. It's getting extremely long in the tooth now, so expect to see an STM, rounded blade update in the next couple of years. If they put IS on it, add at least another hundred quid to the new version, when it arrives.

Great camera lens to an extent
Pros: Not too bulky. Lens functions great. Crisp shots. Cons: When they say 'Portrait' lens they mean it. It really is made for close-up head shot portraits rather than family/group shots. You would have to really distance yourself for group photos with this camera.

Excellent lens but watch out for chroma
This lens is donkeys years old....I've had one since my film days with a Canon EOS620! It's a keeper for sure and at the current price an absolute bargain. I love the handling; it feels just right on my 50D or 760D and the focussing is blisteringly fast and accurate.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Durable
- Easily Interchangeable
- Quick Focus
- Rugged
- Sharp Focus
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Chromatic Aberrations

You may not use it every day, but along with the nifty 50 1.8, it's probably one of the best value lens, Canon has to offer, and priced at a fraction the L series match. Great bokeh, fast, and good focus.
