"This is a great little lens! I made a video review of this lens, you can view that video here: https://www.youtube.com/watchv'=uG7F3TkdAWA"

This is best lens in this price range good enough wide angle for apa-c cameras.stm fast focus is good.vignneting when you focus single subject far from you using center focus point but again at this price range this is execellent lens.you can't get 24mm lens at this price in any other brands.

Love this lens on my 7d . First off I have to do some micro adjustment of -6 to get the full potential of the lens. Its a keeper for sure. CA is tollerabe and can be easily fixed .

This little pancake lens is perfect for shedding weight, or keeping the cameras size down. Perfect for Street Photography.

Nice compact lens which takes excellent night sky images, wide angle landscape photos, and is ideal for photographing architecture and people gatherings. Don't let the inexpensive price fool you! It's a very good lens for the money!

I would recommend this product. It is excellent quality and well worthy of the Canon brand.

When you think it can't get better with Canon, it surely can now! For this price and size there is no contest in the entire market. I dare say. Even the 1/3 macro is very handy and works great with on top flashes like the nissin i40. EDIT: dropped the nissin for ttl. On newer bodies from 80D on.

Price; size; IQ

To bad it is APS-C only; But that is nitpicking for this price

Historically, Canon hasn't been known for making pancake lenses. Just a few years ago it dipped its toes into the water of the ultra-slim prime lens space with the EF 40mm f/2.8 STM for full-frame camera bodies.

Quite sharp; Very compact; Classic wide-angle field of view; Silent STM focus motor; Affordable

Lacks image stabilization; Disappointing manual focus experience; Noticeable vignette at f/2.8

The Canon EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM lens, like Canon's other pancake lenses, is mostly defined by what it isn't. It isn't super wide-angle or telephoto, it doesn't let you zoom, and it doesn't have a super-wide maximum aperture like most of Canon's most esteemed prime lenses.

Back in 2012, Canon introduced the Canon EF 40mm f/2.8 STM - a full format pancake lens. Pancake lenses have a short barrel in an attempt to minimize the size of the overall setup.
