Canon EF-M 55-200mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM Overview

By B&H Photo's

Offering a versatile range of telephoto perspectives, the black EF-M 55-200mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM Lens from Canon is an 88-320mm equivalent zoom designed for APS-C-format EOS M-series mirrorless cameras. The optical design incorporates one aspherical element and one Ultra Low Dispersion (UD) to control chromatic aberrations and distortions throughout the long-reaching zoom range.

Complementing the optical design and telephoto reach is an Optical Image Stabilizer, which compensates for up to 3.5 stops of camera shake to benefit handheld shooting with slower shutter speeds. An STM stepping motor is also featured, which produces fast, smooth, and near-silent autofocus performance to support both stills and video recording applications. For increased control, full-time manual focus operation is also available for making fine-tuned focus adjustments.

STM stepping motor offers fast, quiet, smooth, and accurate autofocus performance that is ideal for video recording as well as still shooting.
Full-time manual focus mode (AF+MF) lets you instantly switch to manual focus control in AF mode for making fine-tuned adjustments.
Rounded seven-blade diaphragm produces a smooth out-of-focus quality when working with shallow depth of field or selective focus techniques.
A five-group optical zoom system maintains a compact, lightweight form factor that is well-matched to the sleek profile of EOS M mirrorless cameras.

Canon EF-M 55-200mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM Reviews

Great lens

By Susan
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2023-07-10

This is a very good zoom lens. I like the fact it has image stabilization. It is also a very light weight lens and is not as cumbersome as some other lenses. Images are pretty good but can be a little soft in areas. That being said, the price won't break the bank either. All in all, I'm pleased with this lens.

Sharp like a telephoto should be

Tested this lens on an M6 II. Sharp and clean image is first thing noticed. Less than 4x zoom and has some size, so the light-tunnel isn't too narrow. Reasonably shallow DOF; Image stabilization works. Has the kind of reach one hopes for in a medium telephoto.

I bought this lens to go with her Canon EOS camera. This was a gift for an aspiring young photographer and she likes the lens. I can't say much, other than I trust the brand and it's quality. B&H is the place for all your photographic needs. Long time customer.

Superb IS

By Paul

The image stabilization is top tier and really helps manage the hand shake. The AF was similar to my experience on other m-mount lenses. It was fast but the tracking could be better (shooting on an m50). The biggest disadvantage is the aperture isn't wide enough when zoomed all the way in. Overall I'm very satisfied with the lens. I feel I'm getting good range for a fair price and have managed to snap a few beautiful memories so far.

Great lens, compact and light weight

I purchased this lens for my Canon EOS M6 Mark II camera. The photos are sharp and show no achromatic aberration. I had to wait months to purchase it because it was out of stock. Hopefully, production and part acquisition will catch up for others to be able enjoy this lens. Now I have the three lenses that cover my needs on a compact camera: 11 - 22mm, 15 - 45mm and this one, 55 - 200mm.

Perfect photos!

I ordered this lens way back in December for a trip in May. I still have not received it because it's bak-ordered. I have a Canon M50 Mark II. What other lens can I use instead. I wanted the option of at least 200 mm.
Asked by: Christina
Natively, there are not many telephoto options available in the EF-M family. Your other choices would be an EF-to-EF-M adapter which opens your choices up to lenses such as the EF-S 55-250mm. https://bhpho.to/3ymxEYB https://bhpho.to/34WBLuu
