According to our camera lens expert
The Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L USM is a compact and light lens. WIth the fixed light value of f/1.2, you create portraits with background blur. This way you attract attention to your subject. The fixed focal length ensures a lot of sharpness with as little distortion as possible. The large lens opening also allows a lot of light on the sensor, so that you mostly won't have to use a flash. The fast ultrasonic focusing motor focusses silently, so you won't scare your subject when photographing at close range.

Super objective. Best results with a fixed focal point on full-frame. Stimulates creativity. The maximum aperture opening in particular is unmatched.

I'm used to buying the products from the l-series (once you start with that, returning is difficult) but with this one I might have taken the Canon EF 50 mm f/1.4 USM. Since it costs about 1,000 euros less and is only 1 aperture stop, or rather half brighter. That aside, it is a very good lens of course, I have already been able to take photos with a beautiful bokeh effect.
