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.

Excellent lens
Outstanding lens at a fraction of the price of the L-series. If you're looking for a fixed lens, then you can't go far wrong with this beauty.

Excellent Lens
For the price, you really can't do much better than this lens. Quality glass, 8 bladed aperture produces nice bokeh. Fast focusing. Although I've done portraits with this lens, I don't recommend it for close up work because of the f 1.8.

Great low-light lens
I was considering the newer 85mm f/1.4... but for me, the price point wasnt worth it. Many people like bokeh... which is fine. I like to shoot in low-light situations. This lens was superb when used on a Canon EOS 6D Mark II.... Autofocus was instantaneous. Very impressive.
