I agree with everything you say.

I just thought the "waisting" comment (from Alex) was very weird from someone who shoots with an M50 II.

Hi MyM6II

As Larry has explained so eloquently the reasoning behind my statement and you "agree with everything you say" why are you finding my comment "weird"?

As Larry said: "I can't agree that using the Siggy on a 24 MP sensor camera is 'wasting' it"

And I agree with him.

I wasn't saying use the Sigma on the M50ii (24mp) and not the M200(24mp); I was merely referring to the extra resolution of the M6ii as the OPs question was referring to the M6ii and the M200.

I bought the M50ii over the M6ii because I like built-in EVFs and using an extrenal flash which clearly the M50ii is the better camera of the two for MY needs, but I do recognise that the M6ii is able to resolve a higher pixel count.

As for the comparison between the Canon 22.2 and Sigma 56/1.4, it was based not only on my findings (I have sold the 22/2 as a result of the disappointing results) but seems to be an opinion shared by many others too.

When it comes to the EF-M 22mm f/2 it seems to be extremely popular in this forum.

When I destroyed mine by an accident, I ordered a new one the same day. The Siggy 56 is a great lens but I would 10 times rather have the EF-M 22mm if I had to choose between them.

Hope that helps clarify my statement and advise.
