Best M lens to date
on April 13, 2017
Posted by: Ross
from Iowa City, IA, United States
Having owned the M1, M2, M3 & M5 series cameras, and all the EF-M Lenses (except for the lighted macro) I can say this is the very best EF-M lens to date. The size, balance and build quality are closer to what I expect from Canon than some of the other M-Zooms, and image quality, in good lighting, is almost as good as the EF-M 22mm f/2 STM. Recognizing that the M-Series is a crop sensor, I find it equivalent to the EF 24-105MM F/4L IS USM in terms of utility and IQ.
Initially I started using the M-Series for backpacking, but I am finding that I often leave my EOS 5D-M3 & L-lenses at home as I have been very happy with the images from the EF-M 18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM. I have also started to leave my other EF-M lenses as well. This lens, the EF-M 22MM F/2 STM and the EF-M 11–22 f/4–5.6 IS STM cover well with a very small kit.
Cons:
#1 -Pricey
#2 Not on the CPL list.
#3 - Not a "L" weather/dust sealed lens

Fantastic Lens! Great for travel!

I bought a Canon EOS M50 over the summer in anticipation of my first trip to Europe. This is my first exchangeable lens camera. I tried the kit lens and it was ok but didn't do all I wanted such as close-up details, and for landscape and buildings. I figured I have to bring multiple lenses but I wasn't enthusiastic about carrying around more stuff. I saw this lens but the price was a little more than I wanted to spend. I purchased a lower priced lens but was disappointed as it wasn't what I was looking for.
About three weeks before my trip panic set because I felt that I didn't have the right tools for my camera. So I purchased this lens and I am so thankful I did!
This lens is perfect for travel! I took it on my two week trip to Europe and took about 1,470 pictures with it. The pictures are gorgeous! The auto focus is very quick. I was able to get beautiful detailed pictures of landscapes, buildings, canals and windmills. It was also very good close-up with people and even close-ups of flowers.
The pictures with this lens are vivid and extremely detailed. I can zoom in on a section and it blows up with extremely fine detail.
During my trip I never once thought I needed a different lens. This lens did it all! The pictures attached were taken with the Canon EOS M50 camera and this EF-M 18-150mm lens.

Look out for the lens mount
on October 11, 2021

The lens is as sharp as the rest of the M series. The issue is with the plastic mounting ring. I have the "old" 18-55 EF-M that has a metal lens mount. This was supposed to be a replacement. because of the greater range. Fortunately, the mount broke on my flight home from Japan. Canon replaced it since it was still in warranty. I still use this 18-150 extensively on my M6, however, my 18-55 is always near by on my M10 or M100 in case the 18-150 fails again. From what I see, this isn't the only lens in the M-series lineup that went to the plastic lens mount. I love the size of the M series since I can carry 3 bodies, with the 11-22, 18-55, 22, 70-300 (off brand), and a Canon 430EXIII-RTSpeedlite in a small gadget bag.

Lens Mount

Have had this lens for just over 12 months and unfortunately the mount lock has already broken. I originally had the M10 and its lens for 5 years with no issues.

Incredible Lens!

I replaced my Canon 24-105L and EF to EFM adapter with this lens and never looked back. I could not be happier. I am proud to use this lens. The image stabilization is awesome, sharpness is incredible, and it feels good in the hand. It's a great choice for a multipurpose photographer looking for a single lens solution.

I bought this lens for a companion of M6. It works fine and is my travel prefered set now. 5D Mark IV and other telezoom lens now only for birds and wild photos.
