Canon EF-M EF-M22mm F2 STM 6-55mm
The 22mm f/2 aperture on an APS-C sensor delivers a 35mm equivalent field of view with a bright constant aperture for low-light shooting, all in a 104g body. Its STM autofocus is quiet and smooth, making it a discreet option for video and candid work, while the 150mm minimum focus distance allows for close-up detail shots. This lens is best for street photographers and everyday shooters who want a pocketable, budget-friendly prime for an EF-M camera.
