Probably the BEST Travel lens available.

I absolutely LOVE my 24mm STM. It is the perfect lens to take backpacking, as it is light and takes up very little space. I pair it with my SL1, and it makes for a point and shoot sized DSLR package. I have also used it for Street Photography, and it got me my first Explore on Flickr! It's tac sharp and great for landscapes. BUY BUY BUY!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Perfect Lens for the price.

I can't believe the quality for the price. I had to return the first unit, Took great pictures but it would not attach smoothly. Second unit attached smoothly with the same picture quality. Perfect at 0.5 feet, it's a fixed lens, when I took the picture of my son, I actually bumped him on his nose. Picture came out perfect. My son is in a photograph class, so he uses it more then I do now.

The little lens that could

I am the proud owner of a Canon 50mm F/1.2 L, an absolute beast. I live and swear by that lens, but I wanted something wider to use on my 80D, something for more general use that could get me places without breaking the bank (a second time). I bought this 24mm without high expectations, but I have to say that I have been continually amazed at what came out of this little pancake of a lens. It's not perfect, vignetting can be quite strong and there is some image distortion, but those are things you can play around with, and the combination of the relatively wide aperture and super short focal length are an explosive cocktail that I just wasn't expecting at purchase.
What a little monster.

Canon's "GEM"

It's my go to lens, I use this 24mm pancake lens for my standard everyday use. It's wide to capture a full background and it's good for sharp clear tight close-ups.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Nice compact lens which takes excellent night sky images, wide angle landscape photos, and is ideal for photographing architecture and people gatherings. Don’t let the inexpensive price fool you! It’s a very good lens for the money!

I purchased this lens after purchasing a 50mm stm lens. My intention was to use the 50 as my all-around lens; however, This 24mm stm lens may become my ‘go-to’ lens for, mainly, family events and functions. This lens fits the EOS 77D (white dot vs. red dot).
