Key Specifications & Improvements
- Stepping Motor (STM): Uses a gear-type stepping motor for near-silent, smooth continuous autofocus. This integrates perfectly with your 750D’s Hybrid CMOS AF III for video and Live View tracking.
- Maximum Aperture: A bright f/1.8 opening allows for excellent low-light shooting and creates a very shallow depth of field.
- 7-Blade Circular Aperture: Upgraded from the older version’s 5-blade design, producing much smoother, rounder out-of-focus background highlights (bokeh).
- Metal Lens Mount: Features a rugged metal mount, replacing the plastic mount of its predecessor (the EF 50mm f/1.8 II) for significantly better durability.
- Minimum Focusing Distance: Can focus on subjects as close as 13.8 inches (35 cm), giving you a maximum magnification of 0.21x.
Performance on the Canon EOS 750D
- Portrait Perfection: The 80mm equivalent focal length tightly frames faces, while the f/1.8 aperture completely blurs out distracting backgrounds to make your subject pop.
- Low-Light Capability: The wide aperture lets in over four times as much light as a standard kit lens (like the 18-55mm at f/4-5.6), allowing you to keep your 750D’s ISO lower and images cleaner indoors or at night.
- Compact Form Factor: Weighing just 5.6 oz (160g) and measuring a mere 1.5 inches long, it keeps your overall camera setup incredibly lightweight and inconspicuous.
