Description

As a photographer, you may have heard of the "plastic fantastic" lens. Should you be wondering what this is, you're actually looking at one right now. The Yongnuo 50mm is made of plastic. And yes, this is a positive. This keeps production costs low, which is something your wallet will appreciate. Its performance is no less than that of other lenses with a fixed focal point. The aperture of f/1.8 makes your subject stand out from the background. Actually, we believe there should be a 50mm lens in every photo bag. The Yongnuo 50mm f/1.8 makes this possible.

Bought out of curiosity. Doesn't OK, until you start comparing directly with the Canon or Nikon or any 50mm for that matter. After searching on YouTube, this is also confirmed on digitalrev.

My tip: save up for the also not expensive Canon.
