Unmatched clarity and color

This lens is simply amazing. The only advantage the L lenses have on this lens is the weather sealing and that's never been a problem.
The auto focus is fast, the IS helps and it's a great lens for low light.
Where this lens is amazing is the sharpness, clarity and the colors it produces. Colors just pop. I haven't noticed the vignetting others mention but, as they say, that's easily correctable. Images are sharp to the edges and I'm definitely going to start using this lens more.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fine Lens - Requires you to use your camera's Peri
on March 25, 2015
Posted by: Great Dane

Picture quality and sharpness is much better than expected based on the MTF Chart. Suitable, at large aperture, for indoor photos of moving objects that require fast shutter times. Short minimum focal length, fast USM, and very effective IS make this an ideal "Grandkids" lens. Fine detail for outdoor/landscape photography. It is important that you use your camera's Peripheral Illumination Correction as otherwise you will see significant vignetting. This being a newer lens, you may have to first update your version of EOS Utility in order to register the lens' Peripheral Illumination Correction Data. Do buy the original Canon Lens Hood - some aftermarket products simply do not work well on this lens.

Next Level!

Purchased this lens about 6 months ago and have been blown away by the quality. I shoot on a 7d (cropped sensor) so this lens actually ends up being closer to a 50mm for AP-C shooters. I use this mainly for model/portrait photography as well as videography. The Image stabilization is a huge plus and the focus ring is smooth and consistent. This is by far the best lens I own.

A great piece of glass

I picked up this lens about 2 weeks ago to use on my 6D. Sharp as can be, excellent color rendition. One note using it wide open at f2.0 the lens produces a lot of vignetting on the corners, it completely goes away at f4.0. Using it wide open is not an issue because it can be easily removed in post production.

Best all purpose lens

I recommend this as the best Canon lens for anytime anywhere photography. If you are confused of which lens is the most suitable for you, anytime and anywhere, especially if you own a full frame, this is your best choice. If you are beginner or hobbyist, this lens brings the best in you. The lens is very sharp and fast. Only draw back I see is the vignetting.

Wonderful Lens

I've been using this lens for several years now on various full frame cameras. It's a pleasure to use. It's very light, very sharp AND the IS really works. Great color and contrast, too.

Excellent lens

I bought this not even a week ago, and I wish I would've gotten it sooner. It is so sharp and focus's extremely fast. The images are crisp and colors are fabulous. The lens flare from this is also so pretty! Love it and would buy again,

Classic lens for portraits and landscape, really anything! So many options for the f-stop, nice big apertures too! Makes the focusing difficult though if you are not experienced, but therefore makes it a great lens for beginners learning the basics and the techniques of still life and portrait photography!
