Canon EF-M 22mm f/2 STM Reviews

Great for small my small space

I don't have a ton of space for my videos. This lens give me a ton of versatility in a space where I have little room for depth and angle.

Great for Astrophotography

By Cody

Started to get into Astrophotography last year with my Canon M50 Mark ii but the kit lens left a lot to be desired.. Enter the EF-M 22mm f/2 lens..I picked it up "used", and the only thing I could tell that was used was the lens cap! This lens lets in SO much light from the night sky. I was able to get a faint Milky Way(Orion Arm) photo in a Bortle 5 sky which was very impressive to me. Hope to get some core shots this spring in a darker Southern sky. 10/10 recommend this lens, 11/10 if you get it used and save.

I love this lens!

Simply put, this lens is amazing! I've always wanted this lens after I got my M50 II. I would have eventually got it but when I saw the Black Friday deal for $50 off, I jumped on it and I'm so glad I did! Whether you're a vlogger, videographer or just a photographer who likes to take portraits, this is a must have for you. You won't regret it . Five stars no doubt.

It's a keeper!

Exactly What I Expected

I'm a beginner and bought the Canon M50 to create videos on YouTube. The standard kit lens is great but I want to do closeup filming as well as some indoor work and this lens is just perfect. Great for low light and so far I'm starting to wonder if I'll ever need anything else besides this lens for my needs. I use a gimbal so the lack of built in stability for the lens of no concern at all.

I am uses this with the m200 for quick vlogs. Love to compact setup and shallow depth!

Nice upgrade

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.

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.

i appreciate that hte bokeh is appreciated, but i am looking for crisp images thru an expanded distance(f/i running children against a far hedge? Any feedback on this would be appreciated!
Asked by: Michael C.
On a Canon Em mount APS-C camera, 22mm has the wide perspective of 53°. As you may know, the wider the lens, more DOF or Depth of Field (the area in focus) is created. The more you stop down ((increased the lens aperture number from f/2 to say, f/16, you will make the lens a universal, everything in focus lens. You will have no trouble keeping your kids in focus on a bright sunny day. In twilight, you will have to refocus.

Not all Canon lenses enable DPAF Movie Servo AF. Is this lens compatible with Movie Servo AF?
Asked by: Rudolph, Jr.
The EF 50mm f/1.8 STM and the EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM are not compatible. It seems like only the STM zooms are compatible, and a few L Series lenses.

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.
