Hey everyone! This is my comprehensive review of the Canon EF-M 32mm f1.4 STM lens. I use it with my Canon M50, and it's really surprised me. I go over the specs, show a bunch of example photos, auto focus tests, and then talk about the pro's and con's of the lens. Hope you guys dig the review of the Canon 32mm f1.4! Let me know if there are other lenses you want me to review for the Canon M50. I think the Canon M50 gets a lot of love for video, but it's really a fun camera to use for photos, and this EF-M 32mm f1.4 makes all the more fun!

Please do video review on this lens!
This was a real good video u got personality
@@MalcSkizz appreciate it!!
Great review, it's especially useful to see the camera autofocus with the lens. This is something that is way to often missing from lens reviews. These days almost all lens have great sharpness, but autofocus really is the great differentiator.
Good points on this lens. I’m loving this one and it’s incredible performing. I sold my 6D and bought a M6II. For casual users is a good team. Picture quality is the best I used for this kind of budget. One negative thing is the slow AF performance. The 32mm is noticeable slower then the kit lense or my 55-200. Especially with the M6II. So it’s harder for shots of moving dogs or kids.
I want that M6II!! Haha. Nice combo.
Why is it good "for causal users" ? Arrogant comment. The M6 Mk II is great for all levels of users. I'm not sure what your skill level is, but this camera has no issues taking 80 shot bursts of birds in flight in 30fps raw burst mode and getting every shot in focus. The slow focus you claim of the 32mm 1.4 has no issue keeping up with skateboarders or cyclists coming straight towards the camera at 14fps (photography, definitely not for video LOL). The Sigma 56mm 1.4 keeps up even better. There's nothing 'casual user' about the M6 Mk II and 32mm 1.4 lens combination at all.
Great review. The pictures speak volumes. Also no harping on about crop factor and speed boosters. I feel the same, native lenses for the camera. Those close up shots look like this could be used for product photography which I am interested in. This is my next lens.
thanks for the kind words Brian! incredible lens.
I have those 3 lenses as well....but you need one more.
The 9mm Laowa ultra wide no distortion manual lens.
Try to find one used if you can, but it opens up a whole new world.
Hello, thanks for this awesome video! If I may ask, when taking videos with your M50, does having the IS on on your camera help alleviate the shaking while shooting video when walking? Great pics too! Thanks brother. 👍🏽🙂
Absolutely it helps. IS helps when zoomed in. The further you’re zoomed in, the more it will alleviate micro jitters.
@@kyletaggart hey, thx for getting so quickly! Im enjoying your channel. Just subscribed! 👍🏽
I am on this lens and it is almost $500 but it captures absolutely stunning images for me it was worth every cent
great review! i have a question tho. i have been using the kit lens since forever! and i have been wanting to upgrade it. do you think the “no IS” would make a big ugly impact on shooting videos? haha thanks x
If you’re doing handheld video, and zoomed in, it does make a difference. Camera strap around your neck, tight grip/arms out, and technique goes a longgg way as well. I wouldn’t rule out lenses without OSS.
Hello Kyle, your reviews are awesome because you give a real world approach to each item that you cover on this channel. Much appreciated indeed! I own both the A6000 and the M50. So your insight on the equipment for both cameras have been great to watch. Thank you for covering the efm 32. I was always curious why folks passed this one up. This lens is stellar! Plus, your photos prove it’s strengths all the way. Thanks again for the review 😊📸.
Thanks so much Greg! Always wondered how many ppl had both cameras like myself!
another great review, also mate I am loving that retro background music you use, reminding me 80s and early 90s
Thanks! Had to switch it up! I wanna find more of it.
Another excellent review my friend. And of course you know I'm a Canon guy and I have multiple Canon cameras. One of which is the M6 and I have a kit lens and the 22 mm F2 which is a fantastic lens as well. The canning glass does seem to be heavy for the most part but some of my cameras like the 1DX MII is a happy camper to start with. I'm still given some serious thought about picking up the Sony a6000 but I'm hearing a lot of good stuff about the a9 II it may give the Canon 1DX M III a run for its money. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Thanks for stopping in prepper! I've been seeing a lot of love for the 1DX III. Jared Polin just did an entire video on shooting it like a mirrorless camera, which was very cool to see. I think the A9 II is just slightly behind the 1D X III in shooting speed and buffer, but in all other aspects the A9 II might have it beat (in my opinion of course). I love the lighter setups, and the EF-M and Sony A6k line are two of my favorites. I think the weight of this lens is really due to the glass for the f1.4.
Also about grabbing an a6000. I know you do longer videos. The a6000 would be a liability for you since it overheats after 15-20 min of recording, and has a recording limit of 30 min. The 6400 - little pricer, is the better option. Flip up screen to check framing, and for video it doesn't overheat and it has no recording limit. I think the 6400 would be the best pick for you videos.
@@kyletaggart I seem to the same review by Jared Polin. And I agree with the way you're thinking as well. I do think it would be an interesting video where you compare the Sony and Canon lenses that you talked about in this video. I think that would be some very interesting outcomes for sure.
I’m looking to buy this camera but confused on which lenses I should purchase. Should I just buy the body and purchase this lense for stills photos or should I purchase this camera with the lensekit it comes with?
I kind of always recommend getting a camera with the kit lens. It's a zoom range, so you can then get a feel for what focal length you may prefer. If you find yourself zooming in a lot on the kit lens, you'd then look at the 32mm. If you have the budget, the kit lens is usually just a $50 or so difference when added on, so you could get the kit and another lens to start. The 32mm is great for portraits, street photography, and it's nice for evening shots as well. 👍🏻
my favourite lens for my m50! (what a gorgeous kitty!!)
Thanks Zena!
Impressive shots! The sharpness and color looks great! Makes me want a Canon now!
Haha these are edited. I had so many I went with what I had from the summer and fall. 👍🏻
Great review and video! How does this lens compare to the Sigma 30mm 1.4?
I haven’t used the sigma on a canon. Just Sony. That could be a good video topic though.
Excellent review, thank you. Your images are beautiful.
Thanks so much!
Great video! Currently waiting on my M6II in the mail plus two of the ef-m native lenses (55-200 and 11-22) after deciding not to go the speedbooster route for my first mirrorless cam. Glad you made that comment in the vid about feeling the same way. All of mine will be silver to match the cam though! Lol.
Nice! Comment back after you’ve had some time with that setup. Really curious about the higher mega pixel count in the M6II.
Just picked up the 32mm 1.4 to go with the 22mm f2. Cannot wait to use it..
Awesome! Let the bokeh begin! Lol
Hey there! Great video I currently use a canon m50 and I have a 50mm lens. My question is…would it benefit me to purchase a 32mm? would the shots have great differences or not really?
50mm f1.8 EF-S? If so, the focusing on the EFM lenses is much faster
@@kyletaggart yup that’s the one! Ahhh okay! I understand. The 32 seems to be sharper than the set up with the speed booster! I’ll look at getting one! thank you for replying! 🙏🏽
The 50mm f1.8 is a classic lens, I love it, but when I started using lenses specifically for mirrorless cameras, it was like whoa…this is what they’re talking about! It’s obviously a little wider of a focal length, but it’s sharp and the fit on the M50 is perfect as it’s made for it. I’d say give it a shot. I haven’t used it with a speed booster personally.
@@kyletaggart gotchu! Thank you for the info! Keep up the great content!
I have been looking at this lens for night sky photography, but can't seem to find any review on it's performance. Have you shot the night sky with this lens?
It’s a bit tight for Astro, but it would perform decently.
Just decided to hit “buy” on Amazon. Just got the M50, I’m looking forward to using this. Watched and read many praises of this lens.
Nice! Congrats. Hope the video was helpful!
@@kyletaggart Indeed it did!
If I'm between the 22mm and 32mm, would you say that this one is worth the money difference?
The 22mm is cheaper, less depth of field but…it’s so compact, and so fun. I love the smallness of it paired with the m50. But it used and it’s super duper cheap. Shoot at f2, I love it.
@@kyletaggart thank you!
Bought it one year ago and started using it this week 🤣 not regret l bought it. Now l want the sigma 16mm or the sigma 56 mm for my canon m50 but not know what is the best choice for portrets.
I own all the three lenses you talk about. For portraits the 56mm takes the win without any question.
56mm all day for portraits!
Can you put a CPL lens filter on it?
sure, but it's filter thread size is 43mm which is small. you can get step up/down rings to fit bigger filters.
@@kyletaggart Thanks for the reply, keep up the good work!
this was a good test and this combo has a very friendly price , thanks
Thanks for watching 😊
Hi, may I know, what camera and lens that you use to shoot this review?
I used the sigma 16mm f1.4 for talking head. And any b roll I believe was with the Sony 35mm f1.8. Camera was the a6000. 👍🏻
@@kyletaggart great to know! So you didn’t make the video examples with Canon M50 this 32mm 1.4 lens?
@@Bangkhaiii huh? no I mean the following:
A roll - video of me talking - Sigma 16mm f1.4
B - roll (shots OF the canon 32mm) shot with Sony 35mm f1.8
At 6:00 you can see I'm using the M50. and showing the AF capabilities OF the Canon 32mm f1.4.
Hopefully this makes it clear
Do you have a comparison review of 22mm vs 32mm?
No, but I have a separate vid on the 22mm f2. 👍🏻
So when a lens is designed for an apsc camera then it's focal length is the actual focal length you will get right?
If I have a EF-M lenses on my M50? I dont need an adapter or the viltrox speed booster? But If I use sigma did I need the adater? How about the S lenses on m50 did I need an adapter?
The EF-S lenses would need an adapter. Also a speed booster is totally something up to you. On all my EF-M reviews I have just used the lenses without any speed boosters.
Would you recommend sigma 16mm or 30 f1.4mm or sony 35mm f1.8 for all around lens for my sony a6000
all of those are great. hard to say as one of them is 16 vs the others being more zoomed in. field of view (FOV) comes down to personal preference and situations. If you have the kit lens, see what focal length you enjoy more, then go for the price with that same length or close to it.
please make comparison video of 22mm @F2 and 32mm @F1.4 (only these two apertures)..sharpness and bokeh comparison wide open. I own 32mm F1.4 and considering to buy 22mm but question is is it really needed as I also own old EF-S 24mm F2.8 STM
I'd say it's only needed if you want a smaller lens for pocketability or travel. I really love the 22mm f2. I tend to use it the most on my M50.
Amazing Shots!
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you!
thankyou...confirmed i am going with this now...
Sick! Enjoy it!
If it wasn’t so pricey I’d buy it. But for $279 I can buy a 23mm or 33mm F1.4 Viltrox for the M50. So far my 56mm F1.4 Viltox is giving me amazing results.
Quick question I came across a Canon ef 75-300 lens what adapter do I need to mount it to my a6300?
Sony (E mount) to EF or EF-S. Depending on what mount the lens is made for.
viltrox 56mm f 1.4 canon m50 video plz
I actually have it in silver for the M50. 👍🏻
Good review , we need 30mm 1.4 sigma review ♥️
For canon? I reviewed it for Sony, and compared it to the Sony 35mm f1.8.
@@kyletaggart yes for canon , we need to see performance on m50 . and thank you again❤️
+1 for this
Thinking of buying this pre-owned for around $350
i just got mine pre owned never used for $240!
Better this or the sony 1.8 35mm aps-c?
My dream: m50 Mark II with the new sensor and a 17-40 2.8 and 85mm 1.8 / 4 with the quality of 32mm. They show that canon can make very good objectives for ef-m (see 32mm) but don't use it ... Fortunately, sigma helps with 3 new objectives but with no good Tele zoom
checkout the M6 II, I hear really good things about that camera. I wanna get my hands on it to test it!!
notif squad bois
thanks pupper!!
Any experience with the sigma 16mm 1.4?
not on the canon M50, but it's amazing on the a6000. I have a review of it :)
Hi Sir, could you share settings? Thank you!
Settings change depending on light.
well done really enjoyed your review :)
Thank you so much! This was one of my fav reviews.
How is this for landscapes, you only showed one real landscape shot. Thank you for your time.
Not the best in terms of focal length, but if you’re fine with that and it’s an extremely sharp lens. I used it a ton in Canada recently, and posted a fair amount of shots from this lens. For that EF-M lens look (which I love), the sharpness, ability to go down to f1.4 if you need it, it’s a great lens by canon. I enjoy it because I can shoot portraits of my wife, and things like landscapes or street, and I’m happy to not switch to something else the entire day.
@@kyletaggart Thank you for the reply. I do not take pictures of two legged carbon based lifeforms at all, just not my thing, wildlife and landscape. I will have to try to find some more pictures or maybe rent the lens.
This + canon m50 or sony a6000 + sigma 16mm 1.4
different focal lengths are used for different things. depends on what your preference is for field of view.
Portrait and night or low light photos taken outside..
Thanks for the quick response
What i have read is that sony a6000 has bigger sensor than canon m50. How much difference will it cause
It’s not much of a difference at all. If you wanna do portraits, the 32mm f1.4 is much better than the 16mm for that. For either camera you can get sigma’s 16, 30c and 56mm f1.4 lenses.
When you try and recommend a camera and the lense is as much as the Camera 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You must not be familiar with camera gear. Lenses are the real investments, not the camera bodies.
Ok I'm broke then😂
Guess I'll make myself watch this Canon fan boi video
haha oh noooo. 😂
I’m sorry but this lens does have I.S I’ve got the lens in front of me
And it says it has IS...where?
