Hi Friends, I'm trying to get a medium zoom lens for my M50. I've tried Tamron 18-200 and a Canon 55-250. Although they were recommended (internet search) for this camera, neither would attach. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks,...Jack
Hello Jack and welcome to the forum. You will be needing one of these.......... https://www.amazon.com/Canon-EOS-M-Mount-Adapter/dp/B008NF8CEK I think that you have brought Canon EF lens, and you want Canon M lens. The adapter should work a treat. Gary
Canons Page for the adapter: https://shop.usa.canon.com/shop/en/catalog/mount-adapter-ef-eos-m Some links to M mount lens reviews to get you started if you want to consider M lenses: https://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/Canon-EF-M-Lens-Reviews.aspx Do you have both of those lenses or did you return one or both of them? There is a fair bit of overlap with the range on them if you kept both making them redundant. If you returned both I would consider what is your long term lens and camera body goals. The reason I mention this is that canon has come out with full frame mirror-less now (RF mount) and I would imagine the M Mount wont get much attention since it really hasn't so far. Also those lenses you mentioned if EF-S lenses only work on crop cameras unless adapted to your mirrorless. Standard EF lenses (suitable for full frame) would be more universal since they cam be mounted or adapted to any of the mentioned body types.
Thanks, Johnsey! No, I don’t have any Additional zoom lenses for my M50 yet,... I’m considering the Canon 55-200 and the 75-300 with adapter,.......though thinking the 75-300 might feel too large on the smallish M50. I’m hoping to hear from actual users of the above,....or others,... Jack
if its any help i have just recently got the sigma 100-400mm f/5-f/6.3 DG OS HSM C for my m50 you will need the ef adapter. i choose this lens over others for the price and weight, the intended use for it was wildlife and solar system objects to which it it is very good at both, i was quite surprised at how amazing it is inside for close up work too. at 100 - 400 range i can hand hold it and get good sharp images, with a X2 i can still hand hold it at 800mm but using my grippa bean bag for extra support on slower shutter speeds makes it alot sweeter.
[QUOTE = "Caladina, post: 10436, member: 2572"] se è d'aiuto ho appena ricevuto il sigma 100-400mm f / 5-f / 6.3 DG OS HSM C per il mio m50 avrai bisogno dell'adattatore ef. Ho scelto questo obiettivo rispetto ad altri per il prezzo e il peso, l'uso previsto era per la fauna selvatica e gli oggetti del sistema solare per i quali è molto bravo in entrambi, sono rimasto piuttosto sorpreso di quanto sia sorprendente all'interno anche per i lavori ravvicinati. a una gamma di 100 - 400 posso tenerlo in mano e ottenere buone immagini nitide, con un X2 posso ancora tenerlo a mano a 800 mm, ma usare il mio sacchetto di fagioli grippa per un supporto extra su tempi di posa più lenti lo rende molto più dolce. [/ QUOTE] Ciao, ho letto il tuo post e mi interessa molto sapere se sei soddisfatta del Sigma che hai comprato? Io ho la Canon M50 e vorrei fare foto naturalistiche. Sono molto soddisfatto della M50, penso che riesce a fare foto di livello professionale. Ma non posso spendere tanti soli per comprare Teleobiettivi della serie L. In alternativa ho comprato un moltiplicatore il focale Kenko Teleplus 2.0x HD DGX da aggiungere al mio teleobiettivo Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM, con adattarore Viltrox speed booster EF-Eos M2, oppure adattatore Canon EF - M . Non sono soddisfatto, perde molta nitidezza. Il Viltrox M2 migliora un poì la nitidezza, Ma le foto di animali, uccelli, con distanza oltre 20-30 metri hanno medio - scarsa qualità, nitidizza scarsa. Penso che ho speso soldi inutili per il kenko... ma lo terrò ugualmente. ciao, grazie
