Your review is so very helpful for those who started getting back into Canon but a bit held back by the limited lens selection for the M mount. Would love to see you trying out adapted manual focus lenses on the system as well!

Ben, your videos are super helpful! I'm getting the m6 m2 with the 18-150 + evf kit. I will be adding the the ef-m 32mm later, maybe Christmas... Thanks for all the insight that you have brought to this process with your vids... Please keep them coming.

Thanks for all the picture examples

thanks for this video, I got it on my new Canon Eos M6 Mark II and I am really happy with it

Oh my God Excited to get M6II now Thanks for review

Fantastic video on this lens ! Great job !!!!

best lens review ive ever seen. thanks

Simple and nice point of vue! Thx

Thanks for the rundown! I am so excited this series of lenses finally came out for the EFM mount.

Thank you, Ben! Great and informative video! Subscribed for more!

Thank you for the review

Nice video I have purchased the Sigma 16mm and 56mm f1.4 ef-m and have used it on my last three videos with my Canon M50. OMG it’s transformed my videos! So impressed 😎👍🏻

What a great review! Thank you so much for your time and effort in making this video. I have been waiting for a solid sigma efm mount review for a while now! 👍👍👍

great video and love the photo examples. it's too bad they discontinued the efm mount. I just ordered a m6mk2 22/32 arriving tomorrow for street and travel photography. thinking of grabbing the 11-22 and 56 to complete the kit and maybe the 28mm macro for travel food close up photos.

I use the latest EF-S 50mm F1.8mm on my EOS M1 - absolutely superb image quality and only £99 new. I think this coupled with the 22mm f2 and the 11-22mm make the perfect travel camera. At night I also use the sigma EF-S 17-50mm f2.8. It’s a beast of a lens but only circa £130 used .

From the lenses I've used, I think Tamron has the most character, then older Canon EF glass, EF-M glass, and (surprise) plastic Canon EF-S. The nicer the Canon glass, the more coatings they add and those coatings seem to give the lens a colder look with a lot of contrast. The old 80-200mm and 35-80mm lenses are plastic and have good warmth, low contrast. The 35-70 glass EF lens is heavy and has a nice look. But I've noticed that Canon isn't using the same coatings on the EF-M lenses as they are on the EF lenses.

Great review and really useful information! Thank you for nice video 👍🏻

Excellent videos, congratulations! What lens do you advise for gastronomic photography

Oooh I want this

No AF issues with my Sigma 30mm f/1.4, paired with a Sony A6400. Both with the latest firmware.

How is that lens for video? Or would you think the 55-200mm would be better for shooting vids? Thanks! Loving the channel man! 🔥🧨💪🏽🤠👍🏽🧨🔥

Lovely video mate Just a question,does your canon recognise this 3rd party lens for distortion correction?

Got mine this Monday and my dog was kind enough to model for me as well. It won't be getting as much use as my 32mm, but should be great for portraits. Still, nothing beats the 32mm and the look it provides.

Sigma advertised the 56mm for video shooting. Would like to see some video test shots 😉👍

Can you do some action sports shots with the m50?

If I have a M50 canon i need adapter for this len?

Hello and thank you for this video. - Are the pictures you show of your dogs and others taken with the Canon eos M6 MII + Sigma 56mm f 1.4? - Do you prefer the Sigma 56 mm f1.4 or the Canon 32 f 1.4? - Are you very satisfied with the Canon eos M6 Mark II? Thank you in advance for your answers. Best regards, Philgood

Great video. I don’t think anyone else has really reviewed this lens for ef-m yet. I have the 22, 28, 32, 11-22 and kit already for the m50..trying to decide if I want this one next or the 18-150..maybe this one as low light indoors capability is more important on these dark, cold winter days! Have the 50mm f1.4 EF with adapter but it’s not very sharp wide open.

This lens is excellent all around.

Good video

I know I'm super late in the M game. Finally got my M6 Mkii 4 months ago and I'm loving every single aspect of it (except for the screen, I normally shoot with a R6 so the articulated screen is perfect). The second lens I got for it was the Sigma 56 and I still can't believe how sharp, accurate and fast lens it is. My camera was second hand and came with no lens. I got the 22 first (another great lens). Since I got the Sigma I got a couple of other lenses and the EF adapter (although I no longer own any EF lens) I shoot probably 80% of the times with the 56, the rest is divided between all the other lenses. The only one I need right now is a wide angle, a good one. The Sigma 16 is under my consideration, but it is too large and heavy. It goes against the small and light factor of the camera. So I'm looking for other options. Which lens would you recommmend? My current lineup is: Canon 22 f2, Sigma 56 1.4, 18-55 (kit lens) and the 7 Artisans 35 1.2.

So, is the expensive EF lenses with the adapter better than this EF-M from Sigma? Please, I have a Canon M6 and I want to buy lenses but don't know which one to buy to this camera.

You said there is no equivalent lens for the canon ef-m mount, but if you don't mind (or prefer!) manual then the Samyang (Rokinon) 50mm f1.2 has been around for ages (couple of years?) for ef-m. I use it on my M3. 80mm equivalent. Sharp enough, very nice lens if you don't mind manual. I've loved using it, and so I imagine the Sigma 56mm f1.4 would be a similar experience. It would be interesting to see how the sharpness and IQ of those two lenses compare. I agree that 30-35mm (~50mm equivalent) is more useful indoors for family/kids etc. But you can sit across a room (or in a garden) with an aps-c 50mm and get nice candid shots with subject isolated by f1.4.

Canon M6 II already has a firmware upgrade for 24p as of 13 Mar 2020.

One reason to consider the Sigma 30mm over the Canon 32mm is that the Sigma is internal focussing, versus unit focussing for the Canon.

Looking to get the M6 Mark ii... it's in my budget range I like the touch screen and size...and it now has 24fps. I currently use my iPhone and osmo pocket for my videos and want to up my video game. Judging by your video... I think I may as well go with the kit lens option... especially with the additional stabilization. There are two lens kit options on B&H... the 18-150mm and the 15- 45mm lens... which one is better as an "all in one"... I will be shooting food and me... my bbq Pitts and anything else in the back yard... I know nothing about cameras except what I have watched on a lot of videos... and they just make things more confusing. Thanks.

This or the 16mm? I know they are for different purpose, i only have the 35 right now. And i cant buy both right now

I like the UX better on Canon than Sony. Maybe I should change my a5100 for a m50 now when those lenses are available.

Please make a video comparison between Canon 32 1.4 and Sigma 30 1.4 efm !!

Is this lens’s need adapter? Because I buy one of those,and it’s don’t match

Very distracting that your hands are out of focus.

Viltrox will release 23mm, 33mm and 56mm for ef-m soon! Very interested to 23mm and 56mm as classic 35mm and 85mm combo in FF equivalent

will this work on the cannon m200?

I have a noob question. What does the mm mean and what does it do in a lens kit... 😁

Which lens do you think is better the 56mm or the 16mm? I’m a beginner and I’m planning on buying a M50 as my first camera . I’m doing my research and most of the cons I’m hearing on that it’s not a full frame camera and it’s poor low light picture quality. I’m a traveler and just want one lens that I could pretty much use for all or most situations of taking pictures of myself while I travel . Which lens would you recommend for the M50 ? and my lens budget is 300$ to 600$ .

the biggest argument in favor of this lens is its price. You get amazing quality (both image -/ build-) for a very reasonable price. And that f 1.4 is so beautiful :)

Do I need an adapter for the 56mm on a 90d canon?

the m6 mark ii already got firmware update with 24fps video

why isnt my sigma 56mm f/1.4 fitting my canon m50

Why are you using your a7iii in crop mode? Is that any better than FF?

The 1.6x crop factor makes these lenses less wide than on E mount.

Great review. Very honest. The Sigma Art lenses were a godsend on the Sony system as it improved the colors on the Sony aps-c sytem from my personal experience. The Canon and M6ii colors on original eos m lenses are excellent. The 50stm may be better for the price and look to the 30mm or 16mm in the Sigma.

How can i attach this to my apsc canon camera? (1200D or Rebel T5)

Checked your old youtube channel-Web Concepts----the videos are awesome....just wondering if you abandoned the channel...any new videos coming there?

I'm reaaaaaally having trouble deciding which camera to get (as my second camera) - Z50 or M6MkII ;/

shallow depth of field in your video makes anything in your hands out of focus. why would you do this?

“Dull” is an optical characteristic common to all Sigma lenses.

A useful comparison would be between something like the Canon 50/1.4 and the Sigma...the Canon is small-ish and only $299 right now...but even the regular price of $399 is cheaper than the Sigma.

I use a 85mm on my 6D ; it is very difficult to take it off the camera. I have other lenses less than 1% of the time.

Does the eis works in photo with this lens?

Thanks for making this. I've been waiting for a review for this lens on EFM system for a while. Very honest and informative. I pretty much shot over 95% of my photos with the Canon EFM 32mm F1.4. I also have the EF50mm F1.8 STM with Canon adapter, which I thought i would use a lot but didn't really. When the Sigma 56mm came out i so wanted to buy one, but once i calm down and watch this review, i feel i might just be falling for the excitement of getting new gear. Maybe this focal length is just not a good fit for the stuff i personally shoot. Anyway, thanks for saving me some money i can spend elsewhere :)

Indonesia 🤝 Saya kagum, semoga kita bisa berteman dengan baik 👍

Hey man, do you know if the M6 mark ii has clean HDMI out ? Thanks!

And no IBIS on apsc cam

*bro I am a youtube creator, do this lens have stabilisation, please reply bro*

First to view, like and comment.????? Yeah

Would have been great if the product was in focus.

what about video?

3 primes, you forgot the 28mm f3.5 macro 😀

"Only $90" I'll take the Sigma.

No thanks. Stick with my EF line with speed booster for my canon m line.

Too late for me now, I moved to fuji x system

so annoying that lenses out of focus

The guy probably has both the m and sony e. And after all this jibber jabber all we get is a photo of pup. Really?

Why the hell do they call something that lets in more light "fast"...

It’s flat...that’s what all those elements do to light.

Talk talk talk and no essence. Please think what you want to tell us. Presented "best picture" - dull ugly picture. No zoom into the photo nothing interesting.

Could have been god but Er, um, Er....

Sigma made in Japan. No one would buy a Rolex made in Mexico.

EF-M is dead.
