@Tech Gear Talk what camera and lense are you using in this video? I'm looking for the background blur that you have and how far is your camera from you? Because I want people to see my desk in my vlog
This is THE most informative video I have seen on lenses. The fact that you're referencing them against the M50 and M6 mk2 is great, too many youtubers forget that the general public doesn't have 10 - 15K to wax on camera kit. I hope Canon offer you a sponsorship. Thank you.
I bought the M50 mark II last year with the 18-150mm kit lens and took it to Dubai Expo 2020. I’m ashamed to say I’m still a novice at photography and used it a lot just in auto mode. However I was surprised at how well most of the shots came out. I returned to the UK and bought the smaller 11-22mm kit lens. Thank you for this video. I’m still getting to grips with the basics of aperture, iso and shutter speed so looking forward to getting out more to use it (once the UK stops raining!)
I recently purchased the M50 with the 15-45mm and 55-200mm in a kit. This video has confirmed my choice of the Sigma 16mm as my next lens. I've never used anything but a point and shoot until now and I'm extremely thankful for your content that has helped me learn the ropes. My favorite gear channel!
Sorry to be so offtopic but does anybody know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb forgot my login password. I would love any assistance you can give me
I have done thorough tests of the EF-M 22mm f2, the EF 50mm f1/8 with and without a Viltrox speed booster, the EF-M 15-45mm kit lens, and the EF-S 55-250mm IS STM lenses. TL,DR: 22mm is sharpest when the aperture is open to f4 or larger and has consistent sharpness throughout the entire image at all f stops. 50mm without the booster is sharpest at f5.6+, but when speed boosted has greater center sharpness and worse middle and edge sharpness up until f11, where it has the same sharpness in the center with and without the booster. The zoom lens, predictably is the sharpest when you can't get close to a subject you want to focus on because optical zoom beats the heck out of digital zoom/cropping in. The kit lens isn't the sharpest at anything, but is versatile since it can cover most common zoom ranges and that can be useful when carrying multiple lenses isn't an option. At low light where we go to f4 and below the 22mm is the sharpest and maintains its sharpness throughout. The 50mm with the Viltrox speed booster becomes gradually sharper in the center and beats the 22mm in center sharpness at some of the higher of those low apertures, but the sharpness falls off at the edges badly. At f5.6 the 50mm without the booster has the sharpest edges, the 50mm with the booster has the sharpest center, and the 22mm isn't the sharpest anywhere, but is still consistent in the sharpness it does have throughout. The 55-250mm all the way down at 55mm (I was only able to test it there due to the room I was testing in being a limited size) doesn't win for sharpness anywhere. It is much better at giving sharpness when using its zoom. An optically zoomed 55-250mm will hands-down be sharper at the spot it is focused on than any of the other lenses in a situation where getting closer is not an option. It has its place and is great for bird watching and is strongest when looking at things far away that the other lenses would need a digital zoom to isolate which would destroy their resolution. At f8.0 the 50mm without the booster wins in overall sharpness as the corners catch up then surpass the sharpness of the 22mm. The 50mm with the booster still has the sharpest center, but the falloff in sharpness towards the edges is slowing down. The 22mm is still consistent throughout, but isn't the sharpest anywhere at this narrow aperture. If you want to use the 22mm in bright situations, I recommend you keep the aperture open around f4 and set the shutter speed high to compensate for the extra light. At f11 the 50mm without the speed booster wins at all parts of the image. It eclipses the center sharpness of the speed boosted one and beats the other lenses. The 22mm again doesn't win in sharpness at any part of the image, nor does the 55-250mm at 55mm. at f16+ diffraction ruins the 22mm's sharpness. The 50mm with and without the Viltrox speed booster perform the same. The 55-250mm is about the same as the 50mm. You can use this information to strategically apply lenses where they will work best. I hope this helps someone.
@@jacqodc3644 the 22mm is the better option, in my opinion. You need to manually fix the aberration from the speed booster 50mm combination in post processing while the 22mm is automatically fixed because it's native (as long as you download the profile to your camera or use DPP4 from Canon). Frankly, the only time I'd use the speed boosted 50mm is when I want to get a full-body portrait of someone indoors where I can't back up, but I don't want to get the background in the scene like the wider 22mm would. For portraits in most situations the 50mm with the regular adapter is best. For wider shots the 22mm is the sharpest of all of these listed lenses. The speed boosted 50mm feels out of place because it had such a niche use, but if you have it you get to enjoy particularly sharp centers, although it falls off a lot as you go towards the edges.
I feel like a macro would be my favourite cause where I am in England there's not a lot of traditional wildlife (mammals and reptiles) but I like doing a "micro safari" where I can appreciate the little critters I normally don't notice.
The Canon macro was a good part of why I picked the M6mk2. I’ve done a lot of close up shooting but never with a “real” macro lens. Also, trying to step up from 1” to APS, I didn’t want to give up macro abilities, even if it does mean swapping lenses. Still, I’m really impressed (vs my 35mm film memories) with how close the Canon lenses can get.
NOTE: Ben Schuette pointed out to me that I said "M6mkii larger sensor" - it's a higher resolution sensor, not larger sensor 32MP M6mkii vs 24MP on the M50 CANON EF-M LENSES: ⭐️ Canon EF-M 11-22mm: geni.us/BazlZB (affiliate) ⭐️ Canon EF-M 22mm f/2: geni.us/mtx5Ywb (affilaite) ⭐️ Canon EF-M 32mm f/1.4: geni.us/R8Von (affiliate) ⭐️ Canon EF-M 55-200mm: geni.us/iHgE7 (affiliate) ⭐️ Canon EF-M 28mm f/3.5 Macro IS: geni.us/IZWLrdy (affiliate) SIGMA EF-M LENSES: ⭐️ Sigma 16mm f/1.4 EF-M: geni.us/1QBZx (affiliate) ⭐️ Sigma 30mm f/1.4 EF-M: geni.us/l24RgAp (affiliate) ⭐️ Sigma 56mm f/1.4 EF-M: geni.us/AdMyy (affiliate) ⭐️ Sigma 16, 30, 56, + case: geni.us/HZVA2T (affiliate) What's up everyone?!

Hi sir can you please make a video on Canon Rebel SL3 best lenses in 2020. I had checked the available video on your channel but it was 1 year ago .. it would be really helpful
The Canon EF-M 18-150mm is my favorite travel lens. For low light and night photos I use the Canon 32mm 1.4f. This combo keeps my camera gear light yet versatile. Sagi, thanks for showcasing these additional options. Also, can’t wait to hear your reviews of Canon R5 & R6. Sylvia
I'm waiting on my Canon m50 (also my first actual camera) to come in the mail, and your videos have been helpful for giving me a head start on familiarizing myself with the camera and the options. Thanks a bunch!
Thank you for your review. I’m thinking to buy the 22mm f2 for low lights situations. But what do you think about the 18-150mm ? I already have the kit lens 15-45mm but I’m hesitating to combine it with the 55-200mm or buy the 18-150mm to just have one polyvalent lens.
It has been a year, what did you end up doing? Personally, I went for the 22 and 55-200. I wanted the extra 50mm, and better optical performance (though it’ll probably never make a noticeable difference). 22 for low light, or compactness. If I was traveling and didn’t want to carry extra lenses, though, the 18-150 would be the one.
After searching through the comments for the past several minutes (obviously while on the toilet since that's the best time to do it) I stumbled upon a comment about whether this particular person in question should use the 55-200 lens and another one (I kinda forgot since it wasn't really important). The Tech Gear guy (can't remember his real name) replied by saying that something like the 18-150 lens is super versatile to take out with you for every day use. Hope your curiosity was somewhat fulfilled.
I just received the M50, excited to get started with it all. Your video I reference often lol soo much to absorb.I enjoy listening to you, your style & knowledge is soo appreciated!
Love your videos. I use the kit 15-45mm, the Canon EF 75-300mm with the EF-EFM adaptor, and recently bought the Sigma 30mm. I would say the downside of the 75-300mm is that it weighs more than the body, but it's extremely useful when shooting animals and the image quality is superb. Next, I'd probably get the EF-M 11-22mm for landscape photography, unless someone else makes an EF-M mount wide-angle lens. But I do want the other two Sigma lens, and possibly a macro lens (like the Sigma 70mm f/2.8 DG Macro Art) in the near future.
Brilliant information thank you. Now after pestering you about cameras and lens for so long (I am sorry), i think i know which camera to buy now lol. You asked for prices where we live about the M50 etc. I live in UK and on Canon site now: Canon EOS M50 in Black, EF-M 15-45mm IS STM, Backpack, SD Card and Spare Battery is £699.99. Camera Body, Black - £539.99 Canon EOS M50 Black, and EF-M 15-45mm IS STM Lens in Black - £649.99 Canon EOS M50 Black and EF-M 18-150mm IS STM £889.99 Canon EF-M 15-45mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM Lens - Graphite £264-99 Hope this helps and thank you so much for your patience and expertise and all your help. x
If you had to pic only two lenses to use with the M50 to take photos of places like the Norwegian mountain range Jotunheimen what would you pick?. Thinking about its great views and nature.
I'm getting a headache for weeks getting all my stuff together. I'm getting into being a UA-camr pretty soon. it's hard to find what you really need as a beginner. thank you!!
@@TechGearTalk , I have been a Cannon user for years after watching your comparison on the M50 and Sony 6000 series I went with my first Sony ever a6100 and love it , So yea Sony lens's next please! Love your reviews!
Hi!! First, very good video, but i have a question: it is better to buy lens from m mount, or just buying an adapter for the other mounts? I want an affordable telephoto for my M50, and i dont know if it's better to buy a 55-200 or a 55-250 with an adapter, because they both cost almost the same, but i suppose the 250 has more range and i think it may be better, but im just a beginner, so since i know u usually answer the questions on the comment box, please tell me which one is a better option. Thank u
The 55-200 is smaller and lighter. The 55-250 is a bit faster at the telephoto end, and has more reach. Do you need the extra 50mm for say, wildlife shots? If so, get the longer lens and adapt it. They're both good lenses for beginners.
Uve been selling a two year old camera in such an amazing and convincing way! I was looking at the xt4 but the m50 now seems cheaper and great for youtube!!
Glad the videos are helpful. The xt4 is amazing - probably my favorite hybrid camera right now. I just like to show what you can do with beginner cameras.
Tech Gear Talk thank u! And u did!! Im actually considering it! Ive been shooting all my youtube content using just gopros! But i believe its time to improve image quality so was looking at a good hybrid! So xt4 but again the portability factor of the m50 and everything u said! Makes sooo much sense
Thanks so much. I rely on you for alll needed info for my M50 which I bought based on your previous review. It has made my life as a UA-camr much easier than if I had bought something blindly!
Thanks for these amazing videos. i just got myself an M50 for music videos but don't know which lens to go for and also if i'll need an adapter or speed booster, please give me an advise on what to choose. thanks.
In case Sagi doesn't see this, I'd say stick with the 15-45 kit lens if it came with the camera. It may be all you need. The 11-22 wide angle would also be a good choice. Unless you have a big budget, avoid going crazy on lenses and pick up a decent external microphone. Good luck and have fun! 😎
Great video , really valuable info for M50 , there are a lot of guys like me who look forward to videos like these for our M50 , keep it coming. We value these video. Appreciate you putting it together
@@TobiasYoung so true, lights and a set are crucial. There are videos on photography sets for food on UA-cam, that give lots of light and a controlled environment. That said I think a 50mm f1.8 with an adapter would be my first choice, that isn’t too expensive
I use the 22mm f2 with my M100 most of the time. Love it. I already had some EF-S lenses, so I bought an adapter off eBay and use it with a 50mm 1.8 and 35mm 2.8 macro. It makes it a little heavier than the 28mm macro would be, but still works really well. Great video!
For an all-around lens, I prefer the 22mm. It’s so compact and sharp. The 50 on the adapter is going to give you more of a short telephoto/portrait lens. Depends what kind if images you want.
@@TravisBlue1 thank you and in your opinion in low light adapter+lens 50mm can negative efect than just lense 22 mm? which lense is better in low light?
great M50 Video as usual! I just bought an M50 a couple months ago and I'm looking to get a new lens. I already have the 15-45mm kit lens. I think the bloopers at the end are a good idea...it's a good thing to get the viewer to laugh, even on serious videos.
Thank you for your tips. Bought the M50 ii this week, to become my new dive camera (housing is still on it's way). But I ordered the Sigma 56 1.4 the next day, and it is probably the sharpest lens that I had in a long time, like the Canon 50mm 1.4 on the FD mount on my old AE-1P
I watched this video even though i dont plan on ever owning a canon, your sony videos are great, you're just a good presenter and I never clicked away. I appreciate the bloopers, thanks, nice to know we all screw up haha.
having watched more than my fair share of youtube video and photography channels and videos, coming back to listen to you is like a breath of fresh air. Very well thought through. Very comforting presentation style, and I believe every word. Feel really confident about the infor you publish. I think I've decided, Canon will have to be my next camera purchase - either APS-C or Full Frame. Still not sure about the choice of DSLR or Mirrorless - somewhat hard to decide. The pictures in this video are stunning and I almost cannot believe that such photography is possible with an M50, like the photos are way too good to be true. I also love the fact that you do not clog the UA-cam airwaves, with lots of gossip, rumour, and innuendos, or attempts at comedy, which can become irritating and pointless. Just straight to the point, methodical. It would be nice to see you smile. Without being comedic, you are allowed that. An occasional smile. The hallmark of a good video is when you are compelled to listen to it over and over again, as well as bookmark it, cos it really packed a punch. Lots of very useful info. Thanks. Requests 1. If you could do a review of the R5 and R6, I think yours is the one I want to listen to, over and over again, and see the pics and or videos you have taken with these cameras. 2. If you could do a similar video for the Canon or compatible EF mount lenses that can be used on with Canon full frame bodies or R mount bodies, superb. 3. Similar review of EF-S lenses i.e for APSC DSLR from Canon, will be wonderful... 4. Are there adaptors to make EF-M lenses usable on other Canon camera mounts, 5. And same question as above, but for EF-S lenses?
Thank you so much for the feedback. You're RIGHT!!! I need to smile more. 1. doing my best to get one 2. yes 3. ua-cam.com/video/UUPqjPs5Iw8/v-deo.html 4. No 5. You can adapt Ef and EF-S to EF-M ua-cam.com/video/O9hzhFpHEf4/v-deo.html Hope that helps. Thanks for being aprt of the channel.
@@TechGearTalk A quick check made me realise that more of your videos are focussed on the more affordable Canon cameras, which I respect and appreciate, Please do not fuss too much about getting hold of an R5 or R6, in order to enable your review. I am not likely to buy one of these higher end cameras, anytime soon. So please do not let my request place you under any undue pressure. I was only curious to see what kind of photos you would take, considering the already more than phenomenal results you get with relatively inexpensive cameras such as the M50. From what you have achieved with an APS-C camera, my current opinion is - Full frame should only become a consideration, only if I start shooting professionally and earn enough to justify the expense, or I simply have extra cash. I am now convinced from your photos, that an APS-C from Canon will be more than adequate for all of my needs.. Credit to your channel for helping me come to this conclusion.
Thanks man, you have help me a lot on my purchases for my Canon M50, right now I got the pancake 22mm and the sigma 30mm, I'm saving for the Macro lens now!
I have m50 mark 2, I need a wider angle. Should I get the EF-M 11-22mm or the EF-17-40 L using the Viltrox speed booster adapter (I already own the speedbooster) Thanks!!
Wonderful video! I got the M50 with the help of your advice and I haven’t regretted it. It’s main purpose is for travel and I always have the 22mm, 32mm and 55-200mm in my bag. They are compact and fit in the small camera bag I take on trips. All that and I can still go carry on only.
I agree! My favorite is the Sigma 16mm 1.4/f as well. I constantly revert to that lens as I find it so useful, especially in low light areas. I have the 56mm Sigma as well, but I find that I don’t use it as much as the 16mm.
I like how you explain everything. if it is possible to list all the basic things you do with this camera with Kit lenses like what type of photography or videos can be taken. Basic setting for Photos(portrait or street photos or videos etc). when you listen, you can't remember what you said. but in written setting lists, you can note it and look back if needed. The photography is now complicated and a lot of things added in digital tech. I just bought this camera with Kit lenses and watching your videos" how to do or operate this camera to get good photos and videos" THanks
Nice video and very imformative. I have the 15-45, 55-200 and the 22mm Efm lenses and the only one I seem to use is the 22mm. It makes me think before shooting and the low light performance is stunning. I paid £99 for it here in the UK. I think the m50 is greatly underestimated as a stills camera but everyone here probably knows this😊
I've been using the 22mm with my M50 but recently upgraded (?) to the 11-22mm lens. I am finding that my weak old lady arms are struggling to one-hand the M50 and the 11-22mm lens...that tiny 22mm had me spoiled. Before I leave to do some curls with the 11-22, I wanted to commend you for your extremely polished video (and sweet Rex Banner outro). :)
Thank you so much Diane - I appreciate you sharing your journey. Yes, the 22 is so compact! I think most people don't realize that until they see it in real life and then the alternative. I hope the wider angle of view of the 11-22 offers some needed benefits (did you sell the 22?) Thank you for the kind words and for being part of the channel!
I really enjoyed this video. I just bought an M50 as an upgrade for my old T5, and I am going to pick up the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 for the marketing photos of my dress store, the Canon 22mm f/2 for my youtube music videos, and just use the kit lens for everyday use. I also have a couple of nice telephoto lenses from my T5 that I will be using as well. This helped a lot!
i have the 22mm and the 18-150mm is ef-m for my M50 and two adapters for my ef lenses .. i love the M-50 for a walk around camera when i don't want to carry my full frame. very well shot and produced video . thank you
Your videos are longer but I always prefer to watch your video before buying anything. I don't know why but God has gifted you with such a precise and valuable information to share. Saw your review on Canon M6 and immediately bought it and pretty happy with my decision, my next video is going to be shot on that. Got the kit lens 18-55mm but also looking for other budget for more depth of field. Happy to be your subscriber, I'm an aspiring filmmaker.
im lucky to came across your channel as I am starting my youtube channel (using smartphone). The more I watched your videos, the more interested I am in doing videography with the beginner cameras! You got my subs and I hope to learn more from your channel. great content!
I have the 22mm and 55-200mm and I have the pancake lens 95% of the time and is good for food photography and architectural photos. I never use the kit lens anymore. Great video!
New Zealand here. Just bought m50m2 with kit lens included in box. $1140 was total for camera package alone. After uv filter and bag, total came to $1260NZD or $908USD
From this video, i only need kit lens to start. Would definitely consider EFM 11-22 for wider shots and 55-200 for closeup shots in future. Thnx, appreciate the video.
Just got my first real camera, it came with the stock lens. Thanks for all the info, it’s way over my head at this point but when I’m ready to expand I’ve saved your video thanks!
Great video as always! Currently I'm using a kit lens, but this year I'm planning to get myself both Sigma EF-M 16mm f/1.4 DC DN and Canon EF-M 55-200mm.
Right at the start of our M50 journey - bought for video making/streaming to get more of our work online due to you-know-what and this was so interesting and informative - thank you! Will subscribe and be back! Happy holidays to you and yours, Peace. Phil.
Hello, The lens I use most on the M50 is probably the Sigma 70mm f/2.8 DG Art Macro, a very good macro lens that doesn't cost too much (less than 500€) and that is also good for portrait. The 28mm macro lens you present here is probably a good lens but 28mm very short for insects, even on an APS-C camera. 70mm is far more confortable.
Great video! Yes I would love a video on Macro lenses with the Canon M50. I am definitely into taking photos of insects and flowers! Thanks for great info. Judy
There's a 65mm 2x macro lens from Laowa that I got recently and it's pretty amazing. it's a pretty new lens, but I think it's the best native mount macro lens for the M series so far.
I know that on/off ramp.... is it state street? Lol maybe I can get some in person help. I've watched 200 camera related videos this week.. I found this video and learned alot so I watched 2 more and I've learned more in your 3 than I did in all the others I watched.. great detail for us newbies. Thanks!! I'm definitely interested in the macro video hopefully you've made it! That's really what I'm most interested in. Thanks again keep up the great job
I watched this ages ago but I'm actually finally ready to buy the m50 now. Firstly, your way of presentation is sooo calming compared to all those other in your face videos so I could actually focus on what you were saying. Secondly, this was super informative and a good comparison of lenses that aren't overwhelming to beginners. I think I'm gonna opt for buying the body only (it's like £100 cheaper for body only 2nd hand in England) and then spend £150 ish getting the 22mm. I know I want that bokeh so I don't think there's any point wasting my time with the kit lens.
Thanks , For Making this video. I'm one of the person who has asked for this particular video. You're a Good Person. Love your content and I do watch all the videos even though I have only m50.
wow this was a mountain of useful information! really in depth on the specs but I also like that you give personal opinions and preferences. super good job!
Here in Germany, if you go on a price comparing site, the difference between the body (518€) and the Kit (549,90€) is 31,90€. However, if you just compare it at amazon, the price difference is 36,66€ The lens itself costs usually 239€, but, one online shop has a special offer for 138,74€. So, with the kit, you can safe enough to buy a good adapter to EF and EF-S for the price of buying Body and Lens separately
My "desert island camera" is my Leica M10, with a 1979 Leitz Canada 50mm f/2 Summicron-M. But I do have a need for a system for real estate photography and possibly some video. When they're back in stock, I'll use your affiliate link to order the M50 body. For lenses, the 11-22. Also, because I love macro, the 28mm macro is a must. Generally, I prefer at least 90mm on a macro. But I did once own and enjoy the 60mm Micro-Nikkor. The 28mm Canon's built-in ring light is a big attraction by itself, but the ability to activate either side independently--oh, yes! In SE Asia last year, I shot a lot of close-ups with a 40mm Zeiss Batis on a Sony a9. Thanks for the reviews and tips!
this was an amazing video since I am getting the Canon M50 pretty soon. But, I am going to new york, ad I want to make sure I get the perfect lense. My budget is below 300, max 400. But I want a camera that's amazing at pictures and videos. One that gets amazing photos of the city, that captures mostly everything, that is wide. But not too wide, so I'm still able to get the family in it. But also one that I can zoom in on, and not blur out the background. One that has amazing focus. I know it's a lot, but I want to get the perfect lens. I have four that I chose out of this video. -16mm f 1.4 dc dn from sigma -sigma 56mm f1.4 dc dn -canon ef-m 15-45mm f 14.5-6.3 15 stm -11-22 f4 to 5.6 IS And if you have anything that can take really fast pictures that would be great! That way if I want to get a scene of someone facing on the street, I can get it :) thank you so much!
Love these videos! In need of adding a telephoto lens to my setup. Really looking forward to seeing about the EF adapter, and how it can open up the range of glass to use. You're great!
Bruh dope video. I'm new to the Canon M50. Got it a few weeks ago. I love the 32mm and that 22. I bought the sigma 16mm. I love that lens. Thanks for this video. Really helped a lot 👊🏾

I was dumb forgot my login password. I would love any assistance you can give me
It’s great to finally see canon, sigma, and viltrox teaming up to make amazing lenses for the ef-m lens mount!
I have done thorough tests of the EF-M 22mm f2, the EF 50mm f1/8 with and without a Viltrox speed booster, the EF-M 15-45mm kit lens, and the EF-S 55-250mm IS STM lenses.
TL,DR: 22mm is sharpest when the aperture is open to f4 or larger and has consistent sharpness throughout the entire image at all f stops. 50mm without the booster is sharpest at f5.6+, but when speed boosted has greater center sharpness and worse middle and edge sharpness up until f11, where it has the same sharpness in the center with and without the booster. The zoom lens, predictably is the sharpest when you can't get close to a subject you want to focus on because optical zoom beats the heck out of digital zoom/cropping in. The kit lens isn't the sharpest at anything, but is versatile since it can cover most common zoom ranges and that can be useful when carrying multiple lenses isn't an option.
At low light where we go to f4 and below the 22mm is the sharpest and maintains its sharpness throughout. The 50mm with the Viltrox speed booster becomes gradually sharper in the center and beats the 22mm in center sharpness at some of the higher of those low apertures, but the sharpness falls off at the edges badly.
At f5.6 the 50mm without the booster has the sharpest edges, the 50mm with the booster has the sharpest center, and the 22mm isn't the sharpest anywhere, but is still consistent in the sharpness it does have throughout. The 55-250mm all the way down at 55mm (I was only able to test it there due to the room I was testing in being a limited size) doesn't win for sharpness anywhere. It is much better at giving sharpness when using its zoom. An optically zoomed 55-250mm will hands-down be sharper at the spot it is focused on than any of the other lenses in a situation where getting closer is not an option. It has its place and is great for bird watching and is strongest when looking at things far away that the other lenses would need a digital zoom to isolate which would destroy their resolution.
At f8.0 the 50mm without the booster wins in overall sharpness as the corners catch up then surpass the sharpness of the 22mm. The 50mm with the booster still has the sharpest center, but the falloff in sharpness towards the edges is slowing down. The 22mm is still consistent throughout, but isn't the sharpest anywhere at this narrow aperture. If you want to use the 22mm in bright situations, I recommend you keep the aperture open around f4 and set the shutter speed high to compensate for the extra light.
At f11 the 50mm without the speed booster wins at all parts of the image. It eclipses the center sharpness of the speed boosted one and beats the other lenses. The 22mm again doesn't win in sharpness at any part of the image, nor does the 55-250mm at 55mm.
at f16+ diffraction ruins the 22mm's sharpness. The 50mm with and without the Viltrox speed booster perform the same. The 55-250mm is about the same as the 50mm.
You can use this information to strategically apply lenses where they will work best. I hope this helps someone.
Bro I got a 50mm lens, should I buy the speedbooster to compensante or buy the 22mm lens?
@@jacqodc3644 the 22mm is the better option, in my opinion. You need to manually fix the aberration from the speed booster 50mm combination in post processing while the 22mm is automatically fixed because it's native (as long as you download the profile to your camera or use DPP4 from Canon). Frankly, the only time I'd use the speed boosted 50mm is when I want to get a full-body portrait of someone indoors where I can't back up, but I don't want to get the background in the scene like the wider 22mm would.
For portraits in most situations the 50mm with the regular adapter is best.
For wider shots the 22mm is the sharpest of all of these listed lenses.
The speed boosted 50mm feels out of place because it had such a niche use, but if you have it you get to enjoy particularly sharp centers, although it falls off a lot as you go towards the edges.
@@bodinian Thx for the info, you're a beast !!
I feel like a macro would be my favourite cause where I am in England there's not a lot of traditional wildlife (mammals and reptiles) but I like doing a "micro safari" where I can appreciate the little critters I normally don't notice.
That's good perspective Noah! Once you start exploring macro - a whole new world opens
The Canon macro was a good part of why I picked the M6mk2. I’ve done a lot of close up shooting but never with a “real” macro lens. Also, trying to step up from 1” to APS, I didn’t want to give up macro abilities, even if it does mean swapping lenses. Still, I’m really impressed (vs my 35mm film memories) with how close the Canon lenses can get.
Thanks
Glad it was helpful. Thank you for being part of the channel!
NOTE: Ben Schuette pointed out to me that I said "M6mkii larger sensor" - it's a higher resolution sensor, not larger sensor 32MP M6mkii vs 24MP on the M50

Hi sir can you please make a video on Canon Rebel SL3 best lenses in 2020. I had checked the available video on your channel but it was 1 year ago .. it would be really helpful
I can only get my m50 to shoot 21 megapixels. Do you have to shoot in raw to get the full 24 megapixels?
His refined tone makes me enjoy his video
The Canon EF-M 18-150mm is my favorite travel lens. For low light and night photos I use the Canon 32mm 1.4f. This combo keeps my camera gear light yet versatile. Sagi, thanks for showcasing these additional options. Also, can’t wait to hear your reviews of Canon R5 & R6. Sylvia
Appreciate the input - that's a great combo! I can't wait to get my hands on those 2. Thank you for being aprt of the channel Sylvia!
Your video are very helpfull for biginer photographer and videographer.. You explain very well... And Good quality video..... Love from india
Thank you sir for this informative video . Appreciate your work it helped me a lot to decide which lens I have to buy . Love from India
Just because of your videos, i am going to buy M50 as my first camera and as a profession of photography.
Glad I'm able to help! Best of luck with your new venture!
I'm waiting on my Canon m50 (also my first actual camera) to come in the mail, and your videos have been helpful for giving me a head start on familiarizing myself with the camera and the options. Thanks a bunch!
CONGRATS!!! So glad I could help. Thanks for being part of the channel!
Such a genuine person
Thank you for your review. I’m thinking to buy the 22mm f2 for low lights situations. But what do you think about the 18-150mm ? I already have the kit lens 15-45mm but I’m hesitating to combine it with the 55-200mm or buy the 18-150mm to just have one polyvalent lens.
It has been a year, what did you end up doing? Personally, I went for the 22 and 55-200. I wanted the extra 50mm, and better optical performance (though it’ll probably never make a noticeable difference). 22 for low light, or compactness. If I was traveling and didn’t want to carry extra lenses, though, the 18-150 would be the one.
I have a canon m50 So I was wondering to buy EFM 55 200 mm lens would it work with the Zhiyun crane m2 ?
Why wasn’t the Canon EF-M 18-150mm mentioned? It is my favorite EF-M lens and it is the most versatile.
After searching through the comments for the past several minutes (obviously while on the toilet since that's the best time to do it) I stumbled upon a comment about whether this particular person in question should use the 55-200 lens and another one (I kinda forgot since it wasn't really important). The Tech Gear guy (can't remember his real name) replied by saying that something like the 18-150 lens is super versatile to take out with you for every day use. Hope your curiosity was somewhat fulfilled.
@@laynef1lw
I’m reading your comment in the toilet
@@A12Diary I approve of this.
@@laynef1lw made my day dude, made my day
@@A12Diary too haha
I find my favourite is the 11-22mm
It’s the one I keep on the body, as it’s super sharp and has a similar FOV to a smart phone.
Very nice video, and all of your content. Learn a lot about cameras and lenses from you. now I am about to step up my quality of content ;)
Happy to help!
@@TechGearTalk DID you really use this kit lens to make nice quality pictures? I can not get sharpness with it. What could be my problem?
I just received the M50, excited to get started with it all. Your video I reference often lol soo much to absorb.I enjoy listening to you, your style & knowledge is soo appreciated!
Love your videos. I use the kit 15-45mm, the Canon EF 75-300mm with the EF-EFM adaptor, and recently bought the Sigma 30mm. I would say the downside of the 75-300mm is that it weighs more than the body, but it's extremely useful when shooting animals and the image quality is superb. Next, I'd probably get the EF-M 11-22mm for landscape photography, unless someone else makes an EF-M mount wide-angle lens. But I do want the other two Sigma lens, and possibly a macro lens (like the Sigma 70mm f/2.8 DG Macro Art) in the near future.
Brilliant information thank you. Now after pestering you about cameras and lens for so long (I am sorry), i think i know which camera to buy now lol. You asked for prices where we live about the M50 etc. I live in UK and on Canon site now:
Canon EOS M50 in Black, EF-M 15-45mm IS STM, Backpack, SD Card and Spare Battery is £699.99.
Camera Body, Black - £539.99
Canon EOS M50 Black, and EF-M 15-45mm IS STM Lens in Black - £649.99
Canon EOS M50 Black and EF-M 18-150mm IS STM £889.99
Canon EF-M 15-45mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM Lens - Graphite £264-99

Glad I've been able to help. Thank you so much for the info!
Thanks, I need a second camera on a budget to shoot some UA-cam videos to go with my EOS-R and thinking that I'll pick up a Canon M50.
You are very welcome - glad it was helpful!
If you had to pic only two lenses to use with the M50 to take photos of places like the Norwegian mountain range Jotunheimen what would you pick?. Thinking about its great views and nature.
Why is this video so cleeeeean man 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks so much Terry 👊
Why is this video so clean, man?*
I'm getting a headache for weeks getting all my stuff together. I'm getting into being a UA-camr pretty soon. it's hard to find what you really need as a beginner. thank you!!
So many to choose from! You really give an amazing overview, but I’m still all over the place when it comes to make a choice.
I did not realize just how much larger (less tiny?) the Sigma lenses were until you pulled one out. Daaang!
Great review! You should totallyyyy do one of these for the Sony alpha series ;)
Thank you so much! You are the 4th person (I think) who has already asked, so I guess I need to get to work!
@@TechGearTalk , I have been a Cannon user for years after watching your comparison on the M50 and Sony 6000 series I went with my first Sony ever a6100 and love it , So yea Sony lens's next please! Love your reviews!
Alright, another vote!
One more vote here! Also would be awesome a video about the configurations you use for any Alpha Serie 6000 (preferably A6100 😍)
Thank you for all the suggestions! Keep them coming!
Hi!! First, very good video, but i have a question: it is better to buy lens from m mount, or just buying an adapter for the other mounts? I want an affordable telephoto for my M50, and i dont know if it's better to buy a 55-200 or a 55-250 with an adapter, because they both cost almost the same, but i suppose the 250 has more range and i think it may be better, but im just a beginner, so since i know u usually answer the questions on the comment box, please tell me which one is a better option. Thank u
The 55-200 is smaller and lighter. The 55-250 is a bit faster at the telephoto end, and has more reach. Do you need the extra 50mm for say, wildlife shots? If so, get the longer lens and adapt it. They're both good lenses for beginners.
Uve been selling a two year old camera in such an amazing and convincing way! I was looking at the xt4 but the m50 now seems cheaper and great for youtube!!
Glad the videos are helpful. The xt4 is amazing - probably my favorite hybrid camera right now. I just like to show what you can do with beginner cameras.
Tech Gear Talk thank u! And u did!! Im actually considering it! Ive been shooting all my youtube content using just gopros! But i believe its time to improve image quality so was looking at a good hybrid! So xt4 but again the portability factor of the m50 and everything u said! Makes sooo much sense
Tech Gear Talk although could u do a review on the sony zv1😁
Thanks so much. I rely on you for alll needed info for my M50 which I bought based on your previous review. It has made my life as a UA-camr much easier than if I had bought something blindly!
Getting real close to 100K subscribers! Can never have enough camera lenses. Great video, as always!
I'm a big believer in investing in lenses! Thank you for all the support my friend! Maybe by the end of the month?
Thanks for these amazing videos. i just got myself an M50 for music videos but don't know which lens to go for and also if i'll need an adapter or speed booster, please give me an advise on what to choose. thanks.
In case Sagi doesn't see this, I'd say stick with the 15-45 kit lens if it came with the camera. It may be all you need. The 11-22 wide angle would also be a good choice. Unless you have a big budget, avoid going crazy on lenses and pick up a decent external microphone. Good luck and have fun! 😎
You're the man!, I want to add 55-200mm for my M50. Thanks for the rich insight as always.
PS: The bloopers;
LOl! You can throw the lens, why not!!
LOL... throw the lens... I need a GoFundMe or more channel members 😂🤣
Glad they are helpful.
Great video , really valuable info for M50 , there are a lot of guys like me who look forward to videos like these for our M50 , keep it coming. We value these video. Appreciate you putting it together
I'm so glad I am able to help. Thank you for the support!
Do you have a suggestion for a great lens for food photography in a kitchen using mostly natural light!?? Thank you in advance
I would start with the kit lens and upgrade from there once you know which focal length you need (and only IF you need an upgrade).
Tech Gear Talk oh ok cool! I have the kit lens!
@@TobiasYoung yup, I would say invest in lights before investing in lenses. the kit lens covers the basic
@@TechGearTalk do the 75-300mm leans work for the canon M50
@@TobiasYoung so true, lights and a set are crucial. There are videos on photography sets for food on UA-cam, that give lots of light and a controlled environment.
That said I think a 50mm f1.8 with an adapter would be my first choice, that isn’t too expensive
So clear and precise. Very well made videos. Thanks for all the work it takes.
I use the 22mm f2 with my M100 most of the time. Love it. I already had some EF-S lenses, so I bought an adapter off eBay and use it with a 50mm 1.8 and 35mm 2.8 macro. It makes it a little heavier than the 28mm macro would be, but still works really well. Great video!
Nice Travis! Appreciate you sharing all the info. Thanks for the support!
which one is better?22mm f2 or 50 1.8 with adapter??
For an all-around lens, I prefer the 22mm. It’s so compact and sharp. The 50 on the adapter is going to give you more of a short telephoto/portrait lens. Depends what kind if images you want.
@@TravisBlue1 thank you and in your opinion in low light adapter+lens 50mm can negative efect than just lense 22 mm? which lense is better in low light?
It’s pretty close. You get like a third of a stop more with the 1.8. So, the 50 by just a bit.
great M50 Video as usual! I just bought an M50 a couple months ago and I'm looking to get a new lens. I already have the 15-45mm kit lens. I think the bloopers at the end are a good idea...it's a good thing to get the viewer to laugh, even on serious videos.
Thank you for the kind words and for the feedback regarding the bloopers - super appreciated 🙏
Thank you for your tips. Bought the M50 ii this week, to become my new dive camera (housing is still on it's way). But I ordered the Sigma 56 1.4 the next day, and it is probably the sharpest lens that I had in a long time, like the Canon 50mm 1.4 on the FD mount on my old AE-1P
I watched this video even though i dont plan on ever owning a canon, your sony videos are great, you're just a good presenter and I never clicked away. I appreciate the bloopers, thanks, nice to know we all screw up haha.
having watched more than my fair share of youtube video and photography channels and videos, coming back to listen to you is like a breath of fresh air. Very well thought through. Very comforting presentation style, and I believe every word. Feel really confident about the infor you publish. I think I've decided, Canon will have to be my next camera purchase - either APS-C or Full Frame. Still not sure about the choice of DSLR or Mirrorless - somewhat hard to decide.
The pictures in this video are stunning and I almost cannot believe that such photography is possible with an M50, like the photos are way too good to be true.
I also love the fact that you do not clog the UA-cam airwaves, with lots of gossip, rumour, and innuendos, or attempts at comedy, which can become irritating and pointless.
Just straight to the point, methodical. It would be nice to see you smile. Without being comedic, you are allowed that. An occasional smile.
The hallmark of a good video is when you are compelled to listen to it over and over again, as well as bookmark it, cos it really packed a punch. Lots of very useful info. Thanks.
Requests
1. If you could do a review of the R5 and R6, I think yours is the one I want to listen to, over and over again, and see the pics and or videos you have taken with these cameras.
2. If you could do a similar video for the Canon or compatible EF mount lenses that can be used on with Canon full frame bodies or R mount bodies, superb.
3. Similar review of EF-S lenses i.e for APSC DSLR from Canon, will be wonderful...
4. Are there adaptors to make EF-M lenses usable on other Canon camera mounts,
5. And same question as above, but for EF-S lenses?
Thank you so much for the feedback. You're RIGHT!!! I need to smile more.

Hope that helps. Thanks for being aprt of the channel.
@@TechGearTalk A quick check made me realise that more of your videos are focussed on the more affordable Canon cameras, which I respect and appreciate, Please do not fuss too much about getting hold of an R5 or R6, in order to enable your review. I am not likely to buy one of these higher end cameras, anytime soon. So please do not let my request place you under any undue pressure. I was only curious to see what kind of photos you would take, considering the already more than phenomenal results you get with relatively inexpensive cameras such as the M50. From what you have achieved with an APS-C camera, my current opinion is - Full frame should only become a consideration, only if I start shooting professionally and earn enough to justify the expense, or I simply have extra cash. I am now convinced from your photos, that an APS-C from Canon will be more than adequate for all of my needs.. Credit to your channel for helping me come to this conclusion.
Glad I could help. I would also not get a full frame sensor unless I was making money off of it.
Thanks man, you have help me a lot on my purchases for my Canon M50, right now I got the pancake 22mm and the sigma 30mm, I'm saving for the Macro lens now!
My favorites are the Samyang 12mm,/2 Sigma 16mm/1.4 and the Canon 18-150mm.
I have m50 mark 2, I need a wider angle. Should I get the EF-M 11-22mm or the EF-17-40 L using the Viltrox speed booster adapter (I already own the speedbooster) Thanks!!
Wonderful video! I got the M50 with the help of your advice and I haven’t regretted it. It’s main purpose is for travel and I always have the 22mm, 32mm and 55-200mm in my bag. They are compact and fit in the small camera bag I take on trips. All that and I can still go carry on only.
So glad I was able to help. That is a fantastic setup - super complimentary setup.
I agree! My favorite is the Sigma 16mm 1.4/f as well. I constantly revert to that lens as I find it so useful, especially in low light areas. I have the 56mm Sigma as well, but I find that I don’t use it as much as the 16mm.
Super appreciate you sharing Jeremy! Thank you for being part of and contributing to the channel!
I like how you explain everything. if it is possible to list all the basic things you do with this camera with Kit lenses like what type of photography or videos can be taken. Basic setting for Photos(portrait or street photos or videos etc). when you listen, you can't remember what you said. but in written setting lists, you can note it and look back if needed. The photography is now complicated and a lot of things added in digital tech. I just bought this camera with Kit lenses and watching your videos" how to do or operate this camera to get good photos and videos" THanks
Nice video and very imformative. I have the 15-45, 55-200 and the 22mm Efm lenses and the only one I seem to use is the 22mm. It makes me think before shooting and the low light performance is stunning. I paid £99 for it here in the UK. I think the m50 is greatly underestimated as a stills camera but everyone here probably knows this😊
Appreciate all the info John A! You read my mind for making this video: ua-cam.com/video/WhR_MSBqRBA/v-deo.html
I've been using the 22mm with my M50 but recently upgraded (?) to the 11-22mm lens. I am finding that my weak old lady arms are struggling to one-hand the M50 and the 11-22mm lens...that tiny 22mm had me spoiled. Before I leave to do some curls with the 11-22, I wanted to commend you for your extremely polished video (and sweet Rex Banner outro). :)
Thank you so much Diane - I appreciate you sharing your journey. Yes, the 22 is so compact! I think most people don't realize that until they see it in real life and then the alternative. I hope the wider angle of view of the 11-22 offers some needed benefits (did you sell the 22?) Thank you for the kind words and for being part of the channel!
I really enjoyed this video. I just bought an M50 as an upgrade for my old T5, and I am going to pick up the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 for the marketing photos of my dress store, the Canon 22mm f/2 for my youtube music videos, and just use the kit lens for everyday use. I also have a couple of nice telephoto lenses from my T5 that I will be using as well. This helped a lot!
Great review but my M50 is my beginning camera...so I'm more interested in EF lenses since I have a speed boost...first lens The Niffty 50 😊
Sounds like a great plan! that's a great lens: ua-cam.com/video/8EEKkrOuj-w/v-deo.html
Kindly suggest ef or ef-s lenses
i have the 22mm and the 18-150mm is ef-m for my M50 and two adapters for my ef lenses .. i love the M-50 for a walk around camera when i don't want to carry my full frame. very well shot and produced video . thank you
I'm right there with you about not wanting to carry a FF if I don't have to. Thanks for the insight Trever (and for being part of the channel!)
Your videos are longer but I always prefer to watch your video before buying anything. I don't know why but God has gifted you with such a precise and valuable information to share.
Saw your review on Canon M6 and immediately bought it and pretty happy with my decision, my next video is going to be shot on that.
Got the kit lens 18-55mm but also looking for other budget for more depth of field.
Happy to be your subscriber, I'm an aspiring filmmaker.
I’m super glad I could help. Thank you for the kind words.
im lucky to came across your channel as I am starting my youtube channel (using smartphone). The more I watched your videos, the more interested I am in doing videography with the beginner cameras! You got my subs and I hope to learn more from your channel. great content!

I have the 22mm and 55-200mm and I have the pancake lens 95% of the time and is good for food photography and architectural photos. I never use the kit lens anymore. Great video!
Appreciate you sharing!
New Zealand here. Just bought m50m2 with kit lens included in box. $1140 was total for camera package alone. After uv filter and bag, total came to $1260NZD or $908USD
Excellent video I’m definitely picking up the Canon M50. The glass you showed looks high quality and affordable.
From this video, i only need kit lens to start. Would definitely consider EFM 11-22 for wider shots and 55-200 for closeup shots in future. Thnx, appreciate the video.
Just got my first real camera, it came with the stock lens. Thanks for all the info, it’s way over my head at this point but when I’m ready to expand I’ve saved your video thanks!
Congrats!!! Glad it was helpful. I always recommend the stock (kit) lens because of: ua-cam.com/video/z-x-d-K9Jfw/v-deo.html
Great video as always! Currently I'm using a kit lens, but this year I'm planning to get myself both Sigma EF-M 16mm f/1.4 DC DN and Canon EF-M 55-200mm.
Thank you so much for sharing - those are two great lenses!
Right at the start of our M50 journey - bought for video making/streaming to get more of our work online due to you-know-what and this was so interesting and informative - thank you! Will subscribe and be back! Happy holidays to you and yours, Peace. Phil.
Which one of these lense will be able to fit the viltrox speed booster EF-EOS M2?
Hello,
The lens I use most on the M50 is probably the Sigma 70mm f/2.8 DG Art Macro, a very good macro lens that doesn't cost too much (less than 500€) and that is also good for portrait. The 28mm macro lens you present here is probably a good lens but 28mm very short for insects, even on an APS-C camera. 70mm is far more confortable.
Canon EF-M 22m f2 lense rocks both for vlogging and crisp photography
You are awesome! I love your professional manner, but you still want us to know exactly what is needed. Thanks for not including any bs!
Super glad you’re enjoying the videos Alex. Thanks for being part of the channel!
Its a cool tempered and intimate review at the same time on the subject I just needed closed. Thanks!
Great video! Yes I would love a video on Macro lenses with the Canon M50. I am definitely into taking photos of insects and flowers! Thanks for great info. Judy
Thank you and will do! Thanks for being part of the channel!
There's a 65mm 2x macro lens from Laowa that I got recently and it's pretty amazing. it's a pretty new lens, but I think it's the best native mount macro lens for the M series so far.
Very nice instructional video narrated with great charisma! In two words: awesome quality! Thank you!
Great video! I bought my Canon M50 Travel kit for 599 Euro here in Germany. Comes with the kit lens, travel bag, 16 GB memory card!

I'm definitely interested in the macro video hopefully you've made it! That's really what I'm most interested in. Thanks again keep up the great job
Perfect video and explanation! You really helped me make an educated decision on which lens to buy next. Thank you so much!
So glad I was able to help. Thanks for supporting and being part of the channel 🙏🏻
I watched this ages ago but I'm actually finally ready to buy the m50 now.
Firstly, your way of presentation is sooo calming compared to all those other in your face videos so I could actually focus on what you were saying. Secondly, this was super informative and a good comparison of lenses that aren't overwhelming to beginners. I think I'm gonna opt for buying the body only (it's like £100 cheaper for body only 2nd hand in England) and then spend £150 ish getting the 22mm. I know I want that bokeh so I don't think there's any point wasting my time with the kit lens.
Thank you so much, this video helped me decide that all I need is the Canon 32mm 1.4!
Glad I could help! Thank you for being part of the channel!
Hello, I am now using M50 to beginning my photography, your video is really helpful! thanks a lot!!

Tech Gear Talk thanks!!!
Thank for great video. In Poland body for m50 mark 1 costs around 460 USD, body of M50 + EF-M 15-45mm f/3.5−6.3 IS STM costs around 600 USD
Shooting weddings now & starting a travel blog. What lenses would you recommend
By the far the best video about Cannon M50 lenses, thank you so much!! Keep it up.
So glad it was helpful. Thank you for being part of the channel!
Some of the best videos on youtube are on your channel. Thanks for what u do man
Thanks , For Making this video. I'm one of the person who has asked for this particular video. You're a Good Person. Love your content and I do watch all the videos even though I have only m50.
You are very welcome - I very much appreciate your support and I will continue to create content!
wow this was a mountain of useful information! really in depth on the specs but I also like that you give personal opinions and preferences. super good job!
I really appreciate the candid feedback. Thanks for being part of the channel!
Great video as always. Congratulations for the quality and work.
Thank you! Cheers! Appreciate you!
Just bought the M50 with the kit lens. Definitely have my eye on the Sigma 56 and the Canon 55-200.
CONGRATS Ethan!!! Hope the video was helpful and thanks for being part of the channel!
Here in Germany, if you go on a price comparing site, the difference between the body (518€) and the Kit (549,90€) is 31,90€. However, if you just compare it at amazon, the price difference is 36,66€
The lens itself costs usually 239€, but, one online shop has a special offer for 138,74€. So, with the kit, you can safe enough to buy a good adapter to EF and EF-S for the price of buying Body and Lens separately
Loaded Kit and 11-22, heading to Sigma 30 F1.4, so exciting!
My "desert island camera" is my Leica M10, with a 1979 Leitz Canada 50mm f/2 Summicron-M. But I do have a need for a system for real estate photography and possibly some video. When they're back in stock, I'll use your affiliate link to order the M50 body. For lenses, the 11-22.
Also, because I love macro, the 28mm macro is a must. Generally, I prefer at least 90mm on a macro. But I did once own and enjoy the 60mm Micro-Nikkor. The 28mm Canon's built-in ring light is a big attraction by itself, but the ability to activate either side independently--oh, yes! In SE Asia last year, I shot a lot of close-ups with a 40mm Zeiss Batis on a Sony a9.
Thanks for the reviews and tips!
Thank you so much! Your videos are wonderful and make life so much easier for us "newbies" to cameras!
So glad I can help Sally
this was an amazing video since I am getting the Canon M50 pretty soon. But, I am going to new york, ad I want to make sure I get the perfect lense. My budget is below 300, max 400. But I want a camera that's amazing at pictures and videos. One that gets amazing photos of the city, that captures mostly everything, that is wide. But not too wide, so I'm still able to get the family in it. But also one that I can zoom in on, and not blur out the background. One that has amazing focus. I know it's a lot, but I want to get the perfect lens. I have four that I chose out of this video.
-16mm f 1.4 dc dn from sigma
-sigma 56mm f1.4 dc dn
-canon ef-m 15-45mm f 14.5-6.3 15 stm
-11-22 f4 to 5.6 IS
And if you have anything that can take really fast pictures that would be great! That way if I want to get a scene of someone facing on the street, I can get it :)
thank you so much!
Wow, lots of gorgeous shots of CLE. Love love love it!
Love these videos! In need of adding a telephoto lens to my setup. Really looking forward to seeing about the EF adapter, and how it can open up the range of glass to use. You're great!
Thank you so much for watching and for the feedback 🙏 I've got that video coming!
Have the kit lens and 55-200 for my m50. Planning to buy the 14mm sigma and the Canon macro lens. Looking forward to the macro tutorial
Nice! I was really impressed with that tiny little macro
Bruh dope video. I'm new to the Canon M50. Got it a few weeks ago. I love the 32mm and that 22. I bought the sigma 16mm. I love that lens. Thanks for this video. Really helped a lot 👊🏾
CONGRATS on the new camera and you got 3 of my favorite lenses - wow!!! Thank you so much for the kind words and support!
Really good video, incredibly helpful for beginners! What lenses would you recommend for landscape photography, good sir?
