Awesome landscape lens So incredibly sharp with very few optical issues. This really does turn the EOS M3 into a great combo for serious landscape photographer who doesn’t want to (or can’t) lug around more gear. For me, bringing my 5d mkiii and 16-35mm is not realistic for a 5 day backpacking trip, but you barely notice the weight of this camera + lens combo. This lens does have limitations, most noticeably the minimum aperture. It really limits the lens to being used outdoors or in very bright indoor lighting. This lens also does get quite soft up near F/22. With the focal length, and depth of field of a crop body, I found that at F/8.0 if I focused at infinity nearly everything but 0-8ft was tack sharp. I did notice a small amount of chromatic aberration in the far corners of a few high contrast shots, but it was minimal enough to be easily removed in LR. I felt that the lens focused just as fast or faster than the 18-55 while being far superior optically.
Excellent lens. Great zoom range, and the IS is extremely helpful. This is an excellent lens and a great addition to the EF-M family, giving me a nice, small, light-weight wide-angle lens for the M bodies.For me, the main point of the “M” bodies is to keep things small and light for easy carry. This lens gives me the wide angle range I often enjoy in a small, light package.It seems quite sharp, and with good contrast and color. And despite what a lot of folks say, having good image stabilization in a wide angle lens is extremely helpful to me. So many times I want to shoot a landscape or interior shot, or even family moments, when lighting is low and I don’t want to drag out a tripod and waste precious time fumbling with it when searching for the best shooting position.The zoom range is handy for getting both perspective and framing just right, and the IS makes it easy to move around to find the best place from which to get the point of view that I want because I’m not tied-down and slowed-down by a…
A great wide angle zoom for the EOS M3 When I first bought the EOS M3 for Xiaoqin, I stuck with the prime lenses. First, the EFM 22/2 is very sharp, tiny and light, and the lack of a zoom actually simplifies camera use. It’s a great lens. In Japan, however, you’re frequently in constrained environments, where the potential to frame the picture by moving your feet is very limited. That calls for a wide angle lens. My preference would have been a 15mm fixed lens, but all the fixed wide-angles for the EOS M system are manual focused, and you really don’t want to manual focus while looking at a screen rather than a view-finder.The EF-M 11-22/4-5.6 STM retails for $400 in the US, but you can get it at a big camera store (Yodabashi had the lowest prices, but Bic Camera is also decent in a pinch) in Tokyo for about $320, sans tax. If you’re brave, you can avoid having to go to a store by having Amazon’s Japanese site ship to your hotel, but then you’ll pay a little bit more, because when they’re unable to verify your…
