Great quality, happy with it one hundred percent!

Somewhere in the comments I read that there are a huge number of hamsters that just die from the red design. I'm just such a hamster! Canon uses this style mainly in the design of high-end devices, for example, the L series, because in the world of photography, red is subconsciously associated with cool optics.
Knowing full well that the lens is potentially no different from the previous generation, for it has remained the same 50mm f/1.8. And everything that can be squeezed out in terms of aperture ratio and normality of the image (as close as possible to the original perception) has already been presented in the last fifty dollars. I took it purely for looks. Looks cool and that's it))

Pros

I don't understand why this product should be judged by a professional. A pro will buy a lens for himself at a price of at least 10 times higher, and this one is taken by beginners who post with the words "look at what awesome pictures" the image captured on the phone from the camera's display. So all these flights and undershoots of autofocus - I didn’t even pay attention to this when choosing a lens. A metal bayonet mount, which was clearly lacking in the old 50mm f/1.8 version. There is hope that it will be stronger. And red lines! RED.

Cons

Autofocus misses, plus either front or back. A little soapy somewhere. And of course yellow! And other quibbles. I have not noticed anything yet, because I am still learning))
