The Canon EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM is a tiny prime lens that delivers surprisingly good image quality given its inexpensive price-point, making it a great moderate wide-angle addition to a compact, lightweight EOS kit.

I had to wait 2 months for this lens to arrive. I even tried to cancel the order but it was too late. It arrived. 30hrs later .. I accidentally threw it onto concrete and the front glass had a crack and the barrel filter ring dented and some plastic bit in the front was shattered.

Superior build quality; Super-sharp images

This is one of the truly &#147MUST HAVE&#148 lenses for almost every Canon EOS SLR camera bag.

NO DISTORTION! WOW! Nice n' Fast * "L" Class Resolution

Not As Quiet As A USM; But So What

I bought this lens to widen the views possible on my EOS 10D. The build quality is great. It feels like a little tank compared to the 50mm f/1.8. It's only sliiightly larger but nicely heavier than that lens. But, check the weaknesses....

Depth of field is great; The horribly wrong autofocusing is quick, and f/2.8 ain't bad either; Build quality is great; It feels like you could throw it at someone, hurt them, and pick it up and use it again

Here's the main problem: It brutally overexposes everything on my 10D; It's not reliably "x stops off" of you would simply set some exposure compensation whenever you mount it on your camera; It's very hit and miss.

I'm going to say that this lens is pretty good can make some very good lenses the one thing that I was expecting from this lens was more sharpness for middle of the road performance I think it's a good lens but I have a tokina 11-20 which is much sharperso I think can and could have done a better...

I bought this for my new Canon 200d (which I'm hating more with every passing day) after reading many reviews as it was a toss up between this or the 50mm. I went with this for the closer focusing distance and 'macro' capabilities as well as all round versatility.

I was tor between buying the 40mm pancake lens and this, the 24mm pancake. I decided on the 24, since I already have the 50mm 1.8. This lens is amazing! I never thought I would love taking wide angle shots so much, it is such a new experience for me. Very sharp, especially around f5.6.

I bought d lens from local image square shop at a good discount, the build is good if not top notch, but not so cheap feel like the old nifty 50 f1.8. Espcially like d wide angle perspective which on a crop camera has an equivalent of 38.4 mm and the benefit of f/2.8 allowing night time shots with...

When comparing this lens to the EF-S 50mm f/1.8, I like this lens a little more on a crop body because it is similar to a traditional 35mm lens [actually 38.88mm for T3i]. It makes it a little more useful in just walk around picture taking. The build quality and STM are also better.

Overall Value Nice; sharp pictures Much less motor noise than 50mm f/1.8 Small pkg and lightweight Nice walk around lens

Not much room for fingers; but it's a pancake lens; so expected Might only be my example; but interface to T3i camera body seems overly tight; almost to the point I thought I was installing incorrectly

Happy with my purchase. Very good image quality for an under-150 dollar lens.
