I really appreciate you for always making me feel less stupid about my purchase of the Canon M50ii. You keep up to date with great accessories for my budget
I just bought one after watching yours and a couple videos so I’m glad to see you just uploaded new content on it , can’t wait till it gets here tommorow
This lens with the 18 -150 ef-m Is a perfect combo for travelling..I usually put in the bag these 2 lenses plus a light prime lens amongst Sigma 16 mm f/1.4 or Canon 32 f/1.4
Thank you for making this video. This was really informative 💯🤝🏿👌🏿 I do have a question for group pictures (for example for kids at a play/program) would you recommend this lens or the canon efm 22mm lens?
The 11-22mm is by far the sharpest lens I have for me M50 ( I have sigma 16mm F1.4, Canon EFM 32mm F1.4, 22mm F2.0, nitty fifty 50mm F1.8 with vertrox adaptor and the kit lans) You can always trim it for second creation due to its super sharp image. Oh, it only works well at day lights by the way.
Agreed! When I first got my M5 (Canon was fading it out, so GREAT buy!), I adapted the Canon EF-S 10-18mm. I know others have highly recommended that lens for its price, and maybe I had a bad copy, but it was pretty disappointing. This 11-22mm, on the other hand, is great, and I use it all the time. I have an R kit that I use when it's time to do my best, but this lens helps my M kit to feel like I'm not compromising a great deal when it goes hiking with me. I'm getting too old for carrying heavy gear up the side of a mountain! For that reason, I hate to see Canon phase out the M line. I just don't see how the APS-C R cameras and lenses will be able to compete for compactness.
In terms of photography, every lens has its own use. Canon 11-22mm is made for landscape and interior photography. F-stop starts from f.4 because you don't need a blur effect in most cases of interior photography. Mind also that you will use a tripod so you can get the best result of it. If somebody wants a les for daily use, even in low light situation, he should by Sigmas 16mm f1.4 or my favourite Sigma 30mm f1.4. Also, if your budget is limited at the moment, you should avoid 11-22mm for now and go for a brighter lens (f2.8 to f1.4) so you can be more confided. About the review, is pretty good sir, you just got another subscription.
Yo i hope you're here to reply but don't you feel it's too tight for the 16mm as it is apsc sensor(cropped) so it's 16x1.6= around 24mm. wouldn't that be a bit too tight for the 16mm sigma? cause I am actually looking forward to buy a new lens. I might use it for landscapes, scenes or just straight up some portraits but not so close. also a bit of vlogging cause I wanna experiment with i t.
As always great content! I love your EF-M videos. I just got a M6 Mark II to complement my M50 Mark II. I figure that if the mount is going to die then I'll keep my lenses going for as many years as I can. The thing that actually worries me when I think 5 years ahead, is will I be able to find batteries...
I also have an m6 mk2 and I bought the m50 mk2 this summer both fantastic with economical lenses and significantly superior to the respective rf lenses
Hi Mark great channel looking for a new lens for street, architecture shots for my m6 mk2 using canon 22m and 55-200 . What would you go 11-22, sigma 16, Brightin Star 35mm or someting else completely
Sold my M50 five years ago and invested into the RF full frame series and I am in love. However, recently purchased an M200 and a sigma 16 as a second camera for short trips. (throw it in my bag and go) Because it is a second camera, I am trying to keep the investment low but this channel is ruining my plan. Since subscribing, I now want at least 3 more lenses. ;)
Hello again Mark! Have you seen this lens for a good price lately? I would love to have it (or something comparable) for my Mark 50 ii, but not sure how to shop for a discontinued lens.
They are such diffrent lenses really, if you need the zoom function and autofocus, and don't need low light capabilities, then yes. If you have the 15-45 plus the Rokinon, that's a pretty versatile setup.
Thanks for making this edit. I own this lens and also the 15mm-45mm. I love the 11mm for vlogging but not of a fan of the zoom. I wish they made it a prime. Anyway I really enjoy your stuff and I gain a lot of value.
Yea, I also have the 11 to 22. And indoor is not the greatest but beside a window or outside this lens really sines especially between 11 and 15 mm. At 22 the quality can suffer, so I would use 22mm prime at 2.00. But for vlogging for M mount nothing can beat this lens it is the best.
If I were shooting vlogs indoors with not a lot of natural light. Would this be good for the vlog because you said it wasn’t great for the photos but does that go with for the video as well??
I just bought my m50 second hand on Facebook and still trying to figure out the basics and menu options, but I'm really excited to get more lenses and try different kinds of photography.
Hi Mark. Thanks for the video. I have been going back and forth with buying a new lens. I can’t make my mind up. The cheapest options for me are the Canon 10-18mm and this 11-22mm. Now between 10 and 11 probably there isn’t much difference. With the 10-18mm I’d need to buy an adapter, and I can see it has a lot of plastic and looks big. On the other side, the 11-22mm looks extra fine, not heavy at all and good for travelling. I use my M50 Mark ii either with a tripod (in the gym, or recording videos at home) or walking (headshot videos or landscape). So quite a mixture of indoor/outdoor and lighting. I don’t really film late in the evening, although British winter days are extremely short and dark😅 A second hand 11-22mm is around £215 pounds. A 10-18mm second hand is around £100 - but I need to add the cost of the adapter too. I’m not that bothered with depth of field and blur, however it would be nice to have some blurring when I film at the gym, to blur people’s faces and surroundings. Having said all that, would you still recommend the 11-22mm? Or maybe, is there a better option which allows for a wide angle and a lower f-stop too? I could increase my budget a bit for something that could work better. Thanks a lot for your time!
It's a hard one. You will get almost no background blur with either of those, and they are not great in low light environments either. If you can get away with 16mm, then the Sigma 16mm would be the lens, you can test this by setting the kit lens to 16mm and see if that works for you. The Sigma 16 will give you a better image, better low light, and a blurry background.
Hey mark thanks for all these tips you give us new m50 owners I bought the hood and filter from the other video but don’t seem to get it fit snug did you have this problem?
Great, helpful and informative review! Could you find any performance differences of the 11-22 lens (sharpness, picture quality) when using the M50 in comparison to the M6 Mark II with the more demanding 32MP sensor? Thank you and best regards.
For video yes, for photo, I think it would be hard to tell the difference, which will be true for all but the very best prime (fixed focal length) lenses.
@@markwiemels Thank you for your comment. Would you recommend to use the Canon EF-M zoom lenses 11-22, 15-45, 55-200 with the M50 to get better (sharper) photo results and to use the M6 Mark II in respect of the demanding 32MP sensor with Canon and Sigma prime lenses?
I would use the M6 for most things. There isn’t a disadvantage to the 32.5 mp, it won’t make the image worse, it just might not be noticeably better than the 24mp.
If you are talking about the M50 with the 4k crop, it can help somewhat, but 4k on the M50 is only useable in limited situations in me experience. You have the crop, rolling shutter, and poor autofocus, its not a great combination.
I got confused when I saw your m6 II lens shootout from 3 years ago after watching this positive review. 3 Years ago you mentioned being disappointed with the performance of the 11-22. Did you get another copy that changed your mind?
any tips on how to avoid that? Does this make buying the lens used a bad idea? I’ve just gotten into photography again after many years and I’m not sure I’d be able to spot bad from good at this point. Would be running it on m6ii
@@mvander7462 Just buy with the ability to return, ebay and paypal have buyer protection. I also found that this lens seems to be at it's sharpest at f4-5.6, which is unusual, just knowing this will help get the best results.
I am saving for used 11-22mm but after comparing to many cellphones's built in 13mm ultrawide lens(e.p. iphone 11, pixel 5...), I realised maybe I should calm down when not on pro purpose XD (Mostly just for fun on traveling landscape timelapse shooting)
Great video Mark I run a Photo Booth business I have a 360 video booth. I am looking to run the m50 mark ii and was looking for different lens options. Once you said if it’s to dark inside it won’t be that great😢. I believe it would be great since I am providing light. Any tips thank you
One reasonable notice regarding 11-22 EF-M is defraction starting on F8 or F9.... I had brain torture getting chosing for wide angle lens for my M6 M II... so I chooses 10-18 EF-S with adapter because of earlier defection on native 11-22 lense. So 10-18 EF-S wider angle an deferaction on F11 and it's cheaper. (Sorry can't find link on test where were this lenses being tested with defraction findings)
It's a good lens overall. It would be very good (the high aperture starting point keeps it from excellent), but this model suffers from longevity issues. Something has gone wrong in the manufacturing and this lens breaks down hard after 2-4 years. When you put it on one day, it will click and then when you turn on the camera, it grey screens. Have had 3 die this way - that's an expensive ROI for this system. Cannot recommend, which is a shame given the paucity of lenses, let alone quality lenses. Yes, there's an EF lens catalog, but huge DSLR lenses on EF-M cams are extremely wonky in 2024. Just too much competition to justify.
Nice video especially at the this time when I'm looking wide angle lens for my M50 mark II. And, Mark if you could give me a favor, could you make a video comparing canon efm 32mm vs. Viltrox 33mm. I wonder which one better especially if we look how good the viltrox 23mm is. Thank you.
@@markwiemels I was referencing to the "public claim" that it is one of the best lenses for the mount. Was nothing against your video. On the other hand, there are not many good lenses for EF-M unfortunately. So it's sadly even the truth. Which is why I will get a speed booster and normal adapter and just go with EF lenses. I kind of regret to cheap out on the cam and only bought the M50 Mark2. I should have spent a bit more to get a full frame cam. I had no idea how much impact it has on light and higher ISO settings. (my first camera I own)
This lens seems to be very good. But between the Canon EF-M 11-22mm and the Laowa 9mm f/2.8, I think I would go with the Laowa. Even because I have the 23mm from Viltrox. Do you know the Laowa 9mm f/2.8? Maybe it's a good comparison. Congratulations for the work and for another excellent review.
I have seen good reviews of the Lowa, but the one copy of the lens that I tested was terrible. I have seen others say there are good copies and bad copies, I would buy from someplace that has a good return policy, if you go with the lowa.
11-22 is auto focus, also has image stabiliser so you can shoot down to as low as 1/15 to allow more light. Plus having the versatility of the 11-22 makes it a much better all day lens, especially when paired with a prime like say the 32 f1.4
I literally just watched a video of you saying the EF-M lenses were crap and Sigma saved the EOS-M range.. which is it? Theres literally dozens of videos of you claiming this is the best or that is the best. Canon threw you some kickbacks?
I had a bad copy of the lens, this is a new copy of the lens, I mentioned in that video that maybe I had a bad copy. I mostly cover the lenses that I think are the best, If you pay attention I say that they are the best at different things, and most of my favourite lenses are not Canon lenses.
Hi Mark, very helpful and I just subscribed ... ! BUT: can you tell me/us why you have changed your mind / findings -- as in your three years old video (lens sharpness comparison) ruclips.net/video/0Ntf50lCnII/видео.html&ab_channel=MarkWiemels you blamed the 11-22 mm as less sharp then many other M-lenses and (quote) “one of the biggest disappointments…“ Thankyou for more info on that. Christian

Keep up with good work.
I have the EF-S 10-18mm and it works pretty well! I’m curious about whether it is comparable in quality
I have not compared them. Sorry.
This lens has been on my target list to get as is the 22mm prime lens. With getting this lens is there still a reason to get the 22mm prime lens?
The 22 mm prime is much smaller and is an F/2 lens, so it lets in much more light.
22mm prime is better for low light and blurry backgrounds.
What is the program you used?

Is there a way to remove the crop factor to make it 11mm like a full frame cam?
No.
I'm curious about the 4K at 11mm. Does it look any good? Will the IS help the rolling shutter issue in hand held situations?
If you are talking about the M50 with the 4k crop, it can help somewhat, but 4k on the M50 is only useable in limited situations in me experience. You have the crop, rolling shutter, and poor autofocus, its not a great combination.
so is there a lens that can do everything this lens can do but also have great night shot quality? if so, can yo please recommend it to me ?
Unfortunately not. Zoom lenses don't let as much light in, as a general rule. The Sigma 16mm would be your best bet.

11-22 is auto focus, also has image stabiliser so you can shoot down to as low as 1/15 to allow more light. Plus having the versatility of the 11-22 makes it a much better all day lens, especially when paired with a prime like say the 32 f1.4
You’re a life saver , i was close to selling my m50 because the 15-45 wasn’t capturing my food vlogs. Can’t wait to buy this wide angle lens v
Great to hear!
Canon rumors mentions rf-s version. uncertain what i will do with rf 16. EDIT: one will probably be announced may 11th
4K gets crop . Fhd works 10mm
I literally just watched a video of you saying the EF-M lenses were crap and Sigma saved the EOS-M range.. which is it? Theres literally dozens of videos of you claiming this is the best or that is the best. Canon threw you some kickbacks?
I had a bad copy of the lens, this is a new copy of the lens, I mentioned in that video that maybe I had a bad copy. I mostly cover the lenses that I think are the best, If you pay attention I say that they are the best at different things, and most of my favourite lenses are not Canon lenses.
Hi Mark, very helpful and I just subscribed ... !
BUT: can you tell me/us why you have changed your mind / findings -- as in your three years old video (lens sharpness comparison)
ruclips.net/video/0Ntf50lCnII/видео.html&ab_channel=MarkWiemels
you blamed the 11-22 mm as less sharp then many other M-lenses and (quote) “one of the biggest disappointments…“
Thankyou for more info on that.

The link you posted for the protective filter cap is for a 55 mm not 11 to 22
Yes, this is the filter size for the 11-22mm.
