The Canon RF 50mm 1.8 STM Lens – £134.99 (after extra £25 off) – This looks like the deal is only available in the UK, but have a look below to see if there are any offers near you:
In our full review of the Canon RF 50mm F1.8 STM lens, we found that “Centre sharpness at f/1.8 exceeds expectations for a lens that costs so little. However, you’ll notice that sharpness at the periphery of the frame drops off considerably. Stopping down to f/2 or f/2.8 has no major impact on centre sharpness, but edge sharpness is perceivably better.”
