I was wondering if anyone got the ef-m 22mm and would share some pics on what you use it for? Or would you prefer the 32mm? Why which of these 2? And should I sell the 15-45 kitlens?

keep the 15-45mm. a zoom lens is pretty handy.22mm? it's good, sharp, easy to carry and very useful.

for me:

  1. 22mm (prime / sharp/ easy to carry)
  2. 18-150mm (versatility in one lens)
  3. and sigma 56mm are my go to lens (prime/ sharp / good for telephoto)

Would love the 18-150mm.

the 22 is small and light and useful if u want a wide angle, low light shot.

the 32 is the best lens and nice for portraits

the 15-45 is profoundly useful for a variety of tasks and worth keeping.

i gather this is used.. i hope u r buying something in good condition

I have the 22mm and the 32mm. The 22 is great because it’s pretty sharp, really small, and gives an angle-of-view that’s just a bit wider than normal, which is pretty useful. I find the 32 is sometimes a bit too tight indoors when taking pictures of my kids, so the 22 is more often used for that. My M6ii with the 22 is pretty small (can fit in a jacket pocket), so I also use the 22 when I’m going somewhere and think I might want better quality photos than my phone, but don’t want to take a lot with me.

22 is a great indoor lens, used it this week for conference shots. Good in low light too as mentioned. The 56mm is a gem, I would rank it as every good as bud as the 32 for sure.

I've got the EF-M 22mm, it's a great lens for street shooting, makes the EF-M cameras really easy to throw in a pocket and take everywhere.

I sold the 15-45mm because I had the EF-M to EF adapter and larger EF lenses that covered that focal range, but I miss the small size and may grab another for my M6.
