If you have the 22mm, it's a wonderful Astro lens and you probably don't need the 32mm lens if you already own the 22mm lens... although it's so darned bright that you may find use for it with comets later this year... or for creative photography in low light. I'm just happy to have a bright lowlight lens to work with that's much faster than f/2.

I also did some astrophotography, but I always had the problem of manualy focusing with this lens. In my opinion it's quite tidious with EF-M lenses in general. Do you have any special tips for this topic?

Agree. One of the reasons I picked up the Rokinon 12mm and adapted the Sigma 35. The focus by wire lenses are tough for astro.
