good price
This is a well-priced lense that according to online image samples is one of canon's best for portrait photography. It has imperceptible differences with the L-version, enough to make this lense well worth the price for quality and value for money. It's the cheapest @ kalahari.

Great lens, okay kit
Lens is great and lives up to everything the reviews said. In this case, the kit was added for the same price so even though the kit quality is so-so and several of the items (usb and bag) shown in the picture didn't come with my kit, the fact is I would just end up throwing them in my junk drawer,...

great lens
I have wanted this lens for almost two years, it was worth the wait. I am not a professional by any means but this lens is great. I use it for street photography and have taken the best photos of my life

Fantastic!
I thought long and hard about this lens compared with the 85 1.2 and in the end frugality won out. This lens is OUTSTANDING for the price. It's light, fast (fast focussing too) and produces great results.

Great low price lens
Bought this Lens at the end of my canon rebel XSI's shooting days. Was put on my 7d mark i most of the time and gave good quality photos for portraits. Now with the 5d mark iii I feel it is being fully utilized.

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.

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.

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.

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.
