A highly practical medium telephoto lens with superb delineation and portability, the Canon EF 85mm lens produces sharp and clear images at all apertures. Through computer simulations, the lens has been designed to give beautiful background blur, thereby bringing your subject into crisp view. The ring-type ultra-sonic monitor (USM) and fast f/1.8 aperture, meanwhile, helps the subject zip into focus in the viewfinder. And because the front lens group does not rotate during focusing, special filter effects are not affected. Best of all, the standard zoom lens--with its natural angle of view and perspective--captures the subject plainly, making it excellent for portraits and images that require a natural depth of field. As with all Canon lenses, the lens carries a one-year warranty.

Customer Review: Awasome ambient light portait lens
I've had this lens a little over a year and have really enjoyed it. I doesn't see a lot of action, but when it shines, it SHINES! On a crop frame body, it is really only well suited for head shots, which I consider a good thing. In my opinion, 50mm is too wide, even on a crop body, for serious portraits. With some close-up filters, it makes a decent macro lens. Most of the images taken outside have been mediocre, but under ambient artificial light inside, I've never been let down. Certainly one of the best buys out there.
