Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Standard & Medium Telephoto Lens for Canon SLR Cameras - Fixed (Renewed)

Good lens in good condition

I already have an 85mm lens f/1.8 but have been wanting something that provides a bit bokeh and better quality as well. I decided to go with this Canon f/1.4 and am glad I did. For the money, this is a nice lens, and I didn't really feel like I needed to shell out the cash for the f/1.2. I actually did a comparison by renting both the f/1.2 and f/1.4 and to me, the difference was not worth the extra money.Amazon delivered when they said and the product was fully boxed in product box with no damages. My only comment, the reason for 4 stars with the autofocus, is the lens was processing very heavy front focus. It took me quite a while to calibrate it, however once I had it pretty well focused in properly, I was getting good quality sharp shots with nice bokeh at f/1.4. Please note that the pics I have included were just messing around, working to get the autofocus calibrated well, so no real creativity - sorry about that.My assessment, for the money, this is a nice lens that is worth having in my inventory.

Very good prime lens, my go to for shoots! @byhannahv

Buying refurbished can be scary … But don’t let that deter you from it.Purchased a nifty 50 lens to add to my Canon camera - and I’m very pleased that I took the chance on a refurbished one to save a little money.My lens arrived packaged in the original box - looking very much like a brand new lens. Lens was free of any damage, fog, or photo issues.Then why 4 stars …I am all about giving 5 stars when it’s due but there was one small thing that makes me give this lens a 4 star. As great as this lens is the connection to my 80D isn’t smooth - there is a little connection pressure. All my other lenses seat and turn and click smooth - this lens seems have a little hitch in its smooth turn feel. It can be a little scary to have to make that turn with a little pressure so personally that’s why less stars.

This is great if you’re just getting into photography. It has enhanced my image quality so much!

Everything OK

The lens is in phenomenal shape! Just like new! It was packaged very well. Very sturdy box, lens was wrapped in a foam wrap and the open space in the rest of the box was thoroughly packed with packing peanuts. I'm always hesitant with buying used lenses and especially from third parties. But, I could not have asked for a better handing of this product.

Absolutely a great purchase. This was my first lens purchase beyond the Canon 7D camera package that came with 2 lenses. This is considerably better than both and takes shooting to another level.
