Canon EF-M 22mm For Milky Way Photos

I am going to test out the Canon EF-M 22mm with a Canon m50 for photographing the Milky Way in the dark skies of SW Saskatchewan!
For the price of this lens, the fact that it is so small and light, I think most people will find a lot of value using this lens for Milky Way and general night photography.

Another great, concise video. The sense of encouragement and possibility you convey is quite special Chris.

[@azamatosh]

Straight to the point. Great

[@teashirt]

Thank you for a very useful intro. I really liked it.

[@attrell]

Thank you!

[@randolphlearning5255]

Good video Chris. Very clear and inspiring. Best of luck from Hamilton Ontario Canada 🇨🇦

[@attrell]

Thanks, you too!

[@danielchan6802]

Thanks for this, can I also ask what focusing method you used for milky way photos?

[@Insomniaclife]

Good work. Thanks for the info!

[@attrell]

Glad it was helpful!

[@SuperAwesomeReviews-lw6ry]

Great photos. The f2 22mm is a powerful little lens in a small package and good price

[@attrell]

I agree!

[@louierich99]

I recently got this lens. I can’t wait to use it at Joshua Tree. Thanks for the video Chris!

[@attrell]

Hope you enjoy it! Thank you!

[@jgr6955]

Good video, thanks, Chris!

[@attrell]

Glad you liked it!

[@trevvrun]

I wouldn't have remembered to turn the camera on. Thank you for that.

[@attrell]

Ha ha thanks for watching!

[@heskinammoduo5799]

No waffle and straight to the point. Good job Chris. Is it hard to make a living in Saskatchewan? I might move there is the future

[@attrell]

Thanks! And no it is not.

[@bartdaw6681]

I am going to try some available light photography again.

[@damarustlaurent]

Oh wow, I’m gonna buy this lens and you just said you’re in Saskatchewan, I’m in Saskatchewan so this camera lens is a must.

[@attrell]

Yes I am! And you will love that lens, so small too!

[@Coastal_Nature]

Okay., Thanks for this video., This video felt more like a beginner friendly than the other video you suggested :)
And that star trail you said -- i found it annoying while using a 50mm lens .,

[@Mendomi]

Nice Chris!

[@attrell]

Thanks!

[@ThePeaksAbove]

Thanks for this!
I am going backpacking soon and am debating between a zoom lens with low aperture, or a fixed like this... I have a canon m50 mkii, with the default kit lens. Will this and that in combo be enough?

[@attrell]

Yes it should and it is small. Have fun!

[@rexgould]

I love my canon m5 ( slightly different than m50), I just wish canon had made more lenses for the m series, they are awesome cameras.

[@attrell]

On amazon, you can get an adaptor.

rf7 has ibis say goodbye to efm system

[@Daniel_Borisov]

Check out the Sigma ef-m f1.4 prime lenses. They have 3 focal lenghts at this aperture - from 16mm to 56mm. F1.4 lets in double the light that f2 does, so the ef-m lense lineup actually has quite a lot of options.

[@choppularmechanics]

What kind of light are you using in background? And dose one have to use a light for night photos?

[@attrell]

A flashlight and no you do not.

[@mikeb6927]

Chris what software do you use for editing? The free one from Canon or something else?

[@attrell]

I use Lightroom, and I use the free one that came with the Mac laptop.

[@mikeb6927]

@@attrell thank you! Also, what are your thoughts between using this lens and the sigma 16mm for astrophotography?

[@user-bw6ly6xg2p]

Super

[@attrell]

Thanks

[@choppularmechanics]

Sweeeet

[@Blarsen1971]

Thanks for the video! Just ordered two of them :-) Just so wife and I wont end up in a fight over one lens ;-) And after Cannon killed the M series, the lenses are hard to find.

[@BoReynolds]

Chris, I'm noticing a bit of LIGHT on all the subjects in this video. Are you pointing a light?

[@attrell]

Yes I am! Just a flashlight
