My Go-To Lens.

After owning the f/1.4 and f/1.8 models, I decided to bite the bullet and purchase the f/1.2 model. I am beyond pleased- I wish I had done this earlier. This is a superior lens and my go-to for almost everything. Excellent quality. Love the weight and feel of the lens as well.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I don't know why I waited so long to add this great lens to my collection - it delivers totally as promised! Much lighter than I expected compared to the 85. Wedding and Portrait Photographer

A real one

My husband and I shoot 60+ weddings a year together, and this is my hands down go-to lens. It's great for details, portraits, landscapes--it really does it all, and has a sharpness and look that I love. If I'm worried I won't have enough room in a space, I reach for the 35mm, and if I want dreamy bokeh I go for the 85mm, but of all our lenses the 50mm gets most of my love. I don't typically shoot below 2.2 for the sake of sharpness, but in low light situations with enough room the 50mm really pulls through. Love it, chef's kiss, buy it!

Very special lens that can produce wonderfully artistic photos

This is a very special 50mm lens. At f 1.2 it has a razor shallow depth of field which can be used to create incredible images. That said the f stop often needs to be selected to capture the depth needed to provide the proper split between what is or is not in focus. I’ve never had this lens miss focus but it’s possible to have too narrow a depth of field. This is really a lens that can produce extraordinary artistic images. Highly recommended.
