The M15-45IS is sharp in the center wide open at all focal lengths. PZ and my own tests confirms this. The IQ issue with the lens is that corners never really get good even stopped down at 15mm. If need good corners at 15mm, grab the M11-22IS instead. Other than that the lens is actually quite decent.

Thanks Abu. I am ok with the performance of the 15-45mm. Good enough in my opinion. I have the efs10-18mm for situations where I need to go wider. I have 80D so I prefer the EFS lens option.

Your experience parallels mine. Alan Sh posted a well done thread a while back with samples from the EF-M 15-45 showing the improvement in edge sharpness using DPP 4 to convert raw files rather than LR.

It was a while ago but if you search for Alan Sh threads I'm sure it'll pop up.

Thanks JD. Looked up that thread. Interesting findings indeed
