Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L USM Lens Review

Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L USM, first released in mid 2006, is the fastest 50mm lens in Canon's arsenal. With the exception of Leica's Noctilux-M f/1.0 (which is not even available in SLR format) and Canon EF 50mm f/1.0L, which has been discontinued some time ago, Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L USM is the fastest...

Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L USM Lens Review

For many years, a fixed focal length (prime) 50mm lens was standard for film SLRs. Although 50mm lenses are not nearly as popular as they used to be, there are still many people who want one of these in their kit.

Canon's 50mm f/1.2 Rangefinder Lens; A Legend In The Super-Fast Realm

Canon's 50mm f/1.2 in Leica screwmount (39mm x 26 tpi) is something of a legend. Introduced in 1957/58, it is very fast and today it is relatively affordable. The main alternatives, after all, are either Leica Noctiluxes (the 50mm f/1.2, 1966, discontinued, or the 50mm f/1, 1967, still current) or...

Canon EF 50mm f/1.2 USM L (full format) - Review / Test Report

As to be expected from a Canon L grade lens the EF 50mm f/1.2 USM L has an exceptional build quality thanks to a tightly assembled combination of high quality plastics and metal parts. A sealing against dust and humidity as well as the the very smooth focus ring completes this positive impression.

Canon EF 50mm f1.2 L USM

Canon's lenses are split broadly into two camps: the standard ‘amateur' lenses and the pro-level L-series optics. The 50mm f1.2 is one of the latter. It's a fixed focal length lens in an age when almost everyone uses zooms, and it costs more than a semi-pro digital SLR.

Best Lens I own !

I absolutely love this lens. Crisp, vivid photos every time. Use it mostly for portraits and it hardly ever comes off my camera body! The small details in the shot are beautiful and the images are again vivid and sharp and clean!

Superb image quality

Outstanding 50mm Lens! It's a little heavy, a bit bigger than most other 50mm Primes... but photographic quality is absolutely superb! My guess is that the size and weight are a direct result of top quality glass and components; I haven't found a situation which this lens has struggled at.
