Artistic and impactful photography

The wide f/1.8 aperture of the EF 50mm f/1.8 STM lens allows you to focus sharply on the subject and blur the background. Photographers call this "narrow depth of field". It makes the subject stand out from the background, so it's perfect for taking sharply focused portraits of people.

Let in more light

The wide f/1.8 aperture lets in more than 8x more light than the standard zoom lens that comes with your EOS*. This results in sharper images with less motion blur, less need to use the flash in low-light environments, and you can easily capture moods in the dark.

For portraits and everyday use

50mm focal length allows you to fill the frame with your subject at a comfortable distance, making it a great lens for portraits. It achieves a perspective similar to the human eye, and its compact size makes the EF 50mm f/1.8 STM lens convenient to carry with your EOS camera at all times.

Sharp focus for photos and videos

The almost silent STM (stepper motor) technology focuses very quickly when taking pictures, so you will be able to react to moments that pass by quickly. STM makes it easier to shoot high-quality movies because it provides stable and quiet continuous focus, resulting in smooth movies with only ambient sounds and no focus motor noise.

A classic reborn

The EF 50mm f/1.8 STM replaces the popular EF 50mm f/1.8 II, which was loved for its exceptional image quality at an affordable price. The latest version delivers the same stunning photo quality, but features a fast and almost inaudible focus motor and a sturdier build that aren't reflected in the price at all.
