The Canon EF 50mm f/1.2 L USM is one of the most coveted lenses by photographers for its excellent qualities in portraiture. Equipped with a maximum focal aperture and fast focusing thanks to the ultrasonic system, it is the bokeh that amazes. Thanks to the circular aperture, the images it returns are the pinnacle of nuance. Photographers use this lens to maximize attention towards the subject of the shot, allowing the background to become soft and uniform. Another reason why the Canon EF 50mm f/1.2 L USM is highly coveted is its sharpness, the L series is the top of the range for those looking for professional quality and performance worthy of their name. The Super Spectra coating manages to balance the color excellently, also reducing the annoying ghosting and flaring phenomenon. For photographers who often use flash, this lens has E-TTL II integration, so you can transfer all information easily. As for the structure, it is small and compact, built with much more resistant materials than the economical 1.8 and therefore naturally represents its evolution. The advice is to purchase this lens to complete your photographic kit. Ideal for portrait photographers looking for a high quality fixed lens. Its versatility also allows it to be used for urban, glamour, still life settings but it is good to consider any technical limitations.
