It really upgraded my Canon M-50 that came with the kit lens. Now I can set the ISO to even the minimum and still looks bright so the image looks a lot less grainy and nicer. The depth of field also improved a lot.

Practical and good quality

Great lens, cost and benefit is worth it. I like the size is very practical for my M50 Mark II. I can move around places and have pro results without carring a lot of stuff.

Unparalleled Value

Purchased this lens for general purpose / street photography with my M50 Mk II and it lives up to the hype. Unbelievably compact; tack sharp down to f2.0, with great color, and good subject separation; works well for nature/landscape, street, and even portraits... for ~$200 you can't come within a mile of this lens.

question

Is there an adapter for this lens to go on a e mount camera like the Sony a6500?
Asked by: Enrique
Unfortunately, B&H does not carry adapters for the Canon EF-M mount lenses. Im not aware of any options on the market that would enable one to mourn an EF-M lens onto an E-mount camera.

How does it work for video? Without IS, does it work well for video? 18-150 is a bit heavy/poorly balances on the gimbal.
Asked by: Jeffrey
If you used this lens on the Canon EOS M50 which has 5 axis stabilization, then this would alleviate the need for stabilization in the lens. If using it on an EOS M camera without stabilization for video, then using a hand held gimbal is the best way to add stability.

is this lens good for pictures of the night sky?
Asked by: Norman
My opinion is this: fast enough for astrophotography but not wide enough. I would choose the Sigma 16mm over this for Milky Way, aurora, ect. photography.
