Meike 50mm f/0.95 50mm
The f/0.95 maximum aperture provides extreme light gathering and razor-thin depth of field control on APS-C sensors, creating an 80mm equivalent portrait field of view. Its 13-blade diaphragm and manual focus design, with a 1.5' minimum focusing distance, deliver exceptionally smooth bokeh and precise subject isolation. This lens is best for portrait photographers on the Canon EF-M system who prioritize low-light performance and distinct background separation over autofocus convenience.
