My New Favorite Go-To Lens.

Like a lot of content creators, I have a lot of lenses, most are Canon lenses since I shoot with Canon cameras. I'd heard about this lens and thought I'd give it a try. OH MY WORD! It has quickly become my favorite go-to lens! I use it for YouTube videos, client projects and even live streaming. Perfect bokeh, lightweight and fits my Canon M50 without an adapter. Highly, HIGHLY recommend!

This Lens Will Take Your Canon M50 to the Next Level

I am so impressed with the quality of this lens, not only in built quality, but, the pictures are amazing! This lens pretty much is on my Canon M50 all the time. I feel sorry for my other lens! The focus ring is buttery smooth, if you have it in a manual mode. The 1.4 aperture gives you that nice blurry background.
It was nice of Sigma to include a Sun shade for the lens, nice touch!

Product sent initially has damage.Replacement lens sent by GOJA was swift and in perfect condition.

The Sigma lens I received today has damage on the inside of the front glass element (small scratch). I thought at first that it was just a smudge on the surface of the glass, but it wasn’t. I contacted the seller (DIGITAL GOJA) and still waiting for their response. I’m just a hobbyist and not a professional that makes money out of this camera. It’s just not right for them to send me a defective product for my hard earned money.
Update: I finally got my replacement lens today (Jan 3, 2021). It is in pristine condition, the glasses both front and back are flawless and immaculate. I installed and tried it on my Canon M50, it worked like a charm not to mention that it looks so gorgeous. I couldn’t be more happier. Thanks to Leopold from Amazon Support for walking me thru the return process ( my first time returning a product on Amazon). Thanks also to Digital Goja for the excellent customer service. Kudos to you guys for a job well done.

Excellent lens for Canon M50

This is truly an excellent lens for the Canon m50. It lacks internal stabilization but the camera more than makes up for it. A good tripod doesn't hurt either!

As far as the rest of the kit the included foldable backpack with inflatable air cushions it's kind of a unique idea. There's not much rigidity in the backpack since it's completely limp without the airbag inserted but it works great for me to have my camera in the bottom and my drone in the upper half if I'm just going out and want to travel light. The little handheld tripod is really handy and the lens cleaning kit is excellent with a very nice case. These little added features make this an excellent buy considering the lens alone is $400 some places. Don't hesitate to buy.

Sharp, Clear Quality and Great Low Light Lens

I've been using the Canon m50 as my primary camera for awhile and was looking at saving for a full frame camera and lens for the lower aperture and low light capability. Saw the reviews on Youtube for this lens, and decided to give it a go before buying into a whole new system. I've got to say I'm crazy impressed. The 16mm focal length is perfect for an APSC camera and the 1.4 aperture has allowed us to film in almost pitch darkness and still recover some detail in post processing. Absolute must have for a cheap camera/lens combo for film making.

Only thing I'd say is a downside is the lack of lens stabilization. You're counting on the digital stabilization of the camera and post processing, unless you're shooting from a tripod or using a gimbal to balance the camera. Other than that absolutely fantastic lens for this price range. I feel like we got away with a robbery here!

Love it.

Great depth of field. Take amazing shots. I’m not pro at all but I like this lens a lot. It is heavy but for me that is not an issue. There is no zooming in or out. Which I didn’t really although looking back I should have realized that. But that’s ok. It takes great videos too. I don’t make as many videos as I do take photos but this lens is great for both.

A really great purchase.

I’m so glad I bought this lens for my Canon M50. It makes everything look better with the blurry background, especially when doing sit-down talk videos and filming up close b-roll. The extra stuff that this purchase comes with is pretty sweet too. I like the tripod and lightweight pack.

This lens took my Canon EOS M50 to another level entirely! The kits is a nice plus

I decided this year to jump into some video creation and still photography.
the M50 has served me well so far, and, this lens has taken the video capture another level entirely!
The warmth and light are truly amazing! AF works great with Canon.
This is well worth the money!

Question & Answer



Question :

Does this have autofocus?

Answer :

It's the camera that dictates that feature. We use it with our Canon M50 and the autofocus works great... fast and silent.



Question :

I got this yesterday and used it for few shots then my M50 can’t work no more. Had a err 20 on screen. Anyone has ever experienced that?

Answer :

No



Question :

Does it match with Canon r6?

Answer :

No, it is EF-M not RF



Question :

Can that lens work in eos rp with adaptor?

Answer :

Unfortunately not, the EF-M system cannot be adapted to the RP system.



Question :

Can you get the asurion protection plan with this lens?

Answer :

Yes



Question :

Will this work with a sony a 6500?

Answer :

They do make this one that works with Sony cameras but this particular one is designed for Canon M series cameras



Question :

is it compatible with Mark IV?

Answer :

No, it is compatible with the Ef-m line.



Question :

Does this have a zoom feature?

Answer :

No. It’s a prime lens so it has a fixed 16mm focus length and can’t zoom



Question :

Can you use a viltrox speed booster with this? i.e. canon m50 to vilitrox speed booster to sigma 16mm 1.4?? is that possible?

Answer :

It comes in the EOS M mount. You wouldn't need the speed booster unless you have the EOS EF mount Sigma lens already. In that case yes you can get Viltrox EF to M mount.



Question :

does this lens have EIS?

Answer :

This does not have image stabilization. 16mm is wide enough focal length that it can get by without IS, apart from the usual camera jitters of the lighter EOS M cameras. However, if you truly require a wider focal length than the kit lens and a lens with IS, it’s recommend that you look at the canon 11-22mm. Just be weary that the 11-22mm doesn’t perform well in low-light situations, it also won’t have the spectacular bokeh that this sigma lens achieves.
