Pros: Small, light, sharp*, price

Cons: Noisy STM, nervous bokeh, lacks hood, blurry edge

Opinion: I had this lens for a short time and I must say that it is a best buy, It is small and read it, it has a very low cost, it is robust and you store it everywhere. The sharpness in the center is really very good, but if you also want it on the sides you have to close at least at f4. the STM is fast but not as fast as a USM, and it's a bit noisy. However, it is still an excellent optic!!!

Pros: Aluminum bayonet. Really good price. Reduced cost of filters. Light and easy to handle. Better build quality than EF in my opinion.

Cons: Slow AF, chromatic aberration.

Opinion: Those who buy it already know that they are not buying an L series. But despite this, for the price at which it is proposed, it deserves to have it. As described, slow AF (not very suitable for video use). Despite the RF optical park, I always carry it with me. The compactness is crazy. Chromatic aberration present! However I feel compelled to recommend it, especially for the cost & what you get with it :)

Pros: Easily transportable small lens, good autofocus and sharpness from f 2.8 onwards

Cons: Plastic and external focus. Closing the lens with the cap sometimes risks damaging the lens (when you do not remember to turn off the machine).

Opinion: The lens performs quite well the value for money holds. As for the focus I would say that it is "normal" nothing amazing but not even the opposite. Good sharpness starting from f 2.8 excellent at f 4. An economic lens that for the amateur photographer is fine, also excellent for travel given its very small size. The ideal is the 50 1.2 but it costs a mistake and for amateurs it is absolutely not convenient.

Pros: Price, weight, dimensions, optical yield, no flare

Cons: Noisy focus, plastic, no hood

Opinion: Much better in everything except in af than the STM EF version. The RF croaks and looks like a less rapid thread. Not only mine, I tried 3... For the rest I would say excellent, much better than I thought. Unfortunately it is the realm of plastic. I do not find flare, just soft to TA, blurred a bit 'hard but better than brother EF. In the bag you carry it even for the little weight.

Pros: Price, lightness

Cons: For the price none

Opinion: With the RP, next to the 35RF 1.8 forms an excellent travel and reportage kit. Very light and compact, too bad that they do not include the hood but with just over twenty euros you buy its original. I took it to replace the old EF 50mm 1.4 and at the moment I am satisfied with the choice, both in terms of sharpness with the same aperture and in terms of solidity, despite the plastic shell is still well made. In short, a fifty that given the price is to have on the stock exchange practically always!

Pros: Cost, lightweight, compact, programmable bezel.

Cons: None in my opinion

Opinion: Bought to match my Canon eos rp, which with this lens becomes a compact. Very light lens, excellent blurred at 1.8. Very sharp. At this price, how not to buy it. I highly recommend it to everyone. Excellent optics to always carry with you and also always keep attached to the REFLEX in street exits or for room portraits. Great great

Pros: Like the little brother EF: size, weight, cost. Better than the EF little brother: sharpness at the edges.

Cons: Worse than little brother EF: sharpness in the center up to F/4

Opinion: I have the EF version of the lens, to be used with the R system with the adapter. The prospect of having 110g and 2cm less as well as the programmable ring pushed me to invest the exorbitant amount of 200€. When paired with the Canon RP, you get a combination, in my opinion, excellent in terms of weight, handling, clutter, usability: 96x132x87(h)mm / 648g. To be carried in the bag, in the pocket of the jacket. Rf50mm has a slightly greater angle of field than the adapter + EF50mm combination. In the centre, the RF is very, very much less sharp than the EF. At the edges a pleasant surprise: the softness, typical of the fiftieth up to almost F/4.0, disappears at F2.8.

Pros: Compactness, brightness, boken, lightness, very comfortable ring to adjust the exposure in an instant

Cons: Perhaps a lampshed but because of the cost it has, nothing else can be expected.

Opinion: For just over 200 euros bring home a light and efficient light lens that mounted on my R makes it a professional and light supercompatta to always carry behind. Great for everything from the portrait set on the close-ups and why not also to the street. It makes a very delicate blurry with an excellent detachment of the subject. The first tests I did were in AFC servo with eye recognition at f1.8 and I have to say that it does not miss a beat and that autofocus is really fast. He suffers a little only when asked about close-ups when you risk approaching in addition to the minimum focus distance. For those you know better an 85.. But otherwise it is really a must have on which to build a set set set low cost but high performance.. I reserve the right to do more tests by closing a little more to see the sharpness.. although the temptation to leave it stuck at f1.8 is very strong given the results.. Haha.. I can only give 10..love at first shot!

Pros: Size; Price; Autofocus; Multifunctional Ring; Sharpness from 2.2 onwards

Cons: Sharpness to TA, Absence of the supplied lampshon, Maybe there could have been a stabilization.

Opinion: I tried this lens recently with which I replaced the Tamron 45mm 1.8 SP. Then beyond the usual plastic sensation of this fifty I have to say that otherwise it was definitely surprising. Full-opening sharpness is obviously not the top of the top but with a little edit you can bring out results. From 2.2 onwards, however, sharpness becomes excellent and edge resolution is really effective. I think it is, to date, the mile compromised price quality to start using the RF system without constraints of footprint. The slightest difference especially with open diaphragms with the Tamron is cushioned by the size. The 50mm is really small, comfortable and on my Eos R it is really that gem that makes the car light, transportable and with the mirrorless advantages we know. The multifunctional ring is exceptional and allows you to manage compensation very well for example and therefore have total exposure control without having to focus on anything else. In conclusion, it is an excellent lens that will give you many joys for a truly derisory price

Pros: Price, lightness, size, sharpness from f/2.8 onwards, multi-function ring

Cons: Not tropicalized to be RF and sharpness at 1.8 you have edges. Unique ring for multifunction and fire.

Opinion: Autofocus really very fast, sharpness from f/2.8 onwards, but still quite sharp in the center even at 1.8. Great bokeh. Perfect for RP. Good colors and good depth. The electronic fire responds quite well, a slow wire turning the ring quickly. Compared to the old 50 mm 1.8 II I had it is superior in everything for both precision/speed and responsiveness, for sharpness at all openings. Obviously the comparison to 90 pieces like the 50 mm 1.2 makes no sense.
