@fotosbynor0001 2 года назад

this video is about a year old. I recently got a good price on the M50mkII with the kit 15-45mm lens. I think it is a really nice camera, small, but packed with features. I bought the regular Viltrox EF-M adapter so I can use it with my Tamron 18-400mm lens and my Tamron SP 45mm lens. (I use both those lenses on my Canon 80D) Both lenses work great on the M50mkII, focus seems to be quick and sharp, photos are clean and crisp!! For those that like to shoot only still and no video, you can always buy old film lenses adapted for the M series cameras. These are still great lenses with good glass, but manual aperture and focus. (I used a Tamron 70-210mm on a Fujifilm X-T3, the lens is a film camera lens adapted to the mirrorless Fuji. Glass was good and took excellent photos!!) That is another option for budget minded photogs. ^_^ oh, great video, thanks for the info!!! :)

Canon's native 11-22mm fits the camera natively no vignetting and gets a better zoom for the exact same money as the lens in this video, no adapter needed and better lens all around.

Thanks for the video. My M50 Mark II just arrived with the kit lens. I also have some old canon glass. 40mm, 55-200 and Sigma 17-70. I purchased the M50 primarily as a small 2nd camera. Plus I really wanted a newer Canon. I primarily shoot people and scenery. My older Canons were great but low light challenged. I see lots of options. For portraits and landscapes I see numerous choices including the Canon ef 50mm 1.8, the Canon 32, the Viltrox 33 and 56. will have to decide between the Canon 50, 32 vs Viltrox 33 and 56. Not looking to get more than 1 or 2 for now. The 40mm is already mine. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks

Very informative video! Down-to-Earth “real world” approach! Nice work! I am just getting into the vlogging to compliment my nature photography and already own a Canon L 16-35mm f4. Will lose that stop of light compared to the 2.8 you recommended. But since I own it already I figure it would be better than the 15-45 kit lens. Thanks for video! Best of luck!

If you will use it with viltrox speedbooster, You will get one more stop of light, meaning f4 lens will become 2.8. Just remember to update firmware of speedbooster right away when you get it

I have a question. I’ve been having a my M50 for about a year now and am looking to get some better glass on my camera that isn’t too expensive. Im looking for either an M mount or EF mount lens for canon that’s somewhere in the focal range of 24-70mm or 18-55mm and an aperture of F 2.8 or higher. My price range is anything under like $600 or $700. What do you think a good lens for me is?

@MNicole1032 2 года назад

Thanks for the information. I know this is an older vid, but I wanted to know about sports photography. What would be the best out of the options?

@andrewcrossley2448 2 месяца назад

None. Get the super fast focusing Canon EF 70-300mm mk 2 and just the normal Canon adapter not the speed booster. As it has a 1.6 crop factor it equates to a 480mm lens. You will need spare batteries as it’s asking a lot from the body, but it definitely works.

Also #2 I will do some YT stuff filming my self like a "normal" YT so that is important too. The depth of field on the 50mm looks sooo good.. A bit worried I wont get it with the 15-45mm

@arthurmarshall6825 3 года назад

I'm new too. For all the lens he talked about? Yes you need an adapter. Lens that you can use on the M50 without an adapter are called EF M. At least Canon brands are. Cannon doesn't make a EF M 50mm lens, so if you want that you need an adapter. I think the closest you can get is with Sigma as they have a EF M 56mm lens. Then again, using the 50mm with an adapter changes the effect of the lens and I don't want to do that math and I'm not sure what would technically be closest.

Takes photos faster & essentially it turns your camera to a full frame and will allow it to accept those options. Better low-light performance. You can then mount EF lens onto your M50

@ziv2liv Год назад

You recommend lenses for Canon M50 with an EF-M mount and all you talk about is EF mount lenses... There are some great EF-M mount lenses out there, including some great manual lenses... the 22mm f/2.0, the Canon 11-22mm, The Canon 18-55mm, the Venus Laowa 9mm. This cropped-frame camera is small and light for a reason and all you do is add weight and size.. I don't get it...

@h.m.siesel7363 2 месяца назад

Viltrox speedbooster paired with an "L" lens? That 16-35 has an Ultrasonic focusing motor and on camera audio will pick up the sound if it refocuses while filming. For video you want lenses with STM designation. Canon makes lenses for the M series. I have the EF-M 11-22 STM for landscape. They also make a 15-45, two 18-55s, 55-200 all STM. There's also two primes and a 28 mm Macro. If you have a DSLR with the EF standard mount it might make sense to invest in "L" series lenses. Since the M line is discontinued there's some real bargains on EF-M lenses.

@fotosbynor0001 2 года назад

I don't know if you got any answer other than here. I just got the M50mkII a couple weeks ago and I bought the Viltrox EF-M adapter. It works great with my Tamron 18-400mm lens and Tamron SP 45mm lens. errr at least it seems to work well. For video it seemed to be OK, for stills even at 400mm the focus speed was good checking between a few feet in front of me quickly going say 20 feet in front, focus was fast.
