If compared with the original Canon EF 50mm f / 1.8 lens, then of course there is a difference, but as a beginner, just to try, you can take it, at least for this price, I have not seen any analogues. It is somewhat similar to the same canon, only version 2, which is worse in quality, but also cheaper. In general, it all depends on the budget and goals, but if you take it, you can take it cheaper, on a well-known platform.
