Thought experiment to assess the value, importance, and usage of lenses on our M cameras...

If you could only own a set of 3, 6, or 9 lenses for your Canon M system, which would you choose for each set?

Here are mine:

3 lenses:

- Canon EF-M 11-22,

- Canon 32mm f1.4

- Canon EF-S 55-250 IS STM with adapter

Exactly same here!

6 lenses:

- Canon 11-22mm IS STM

- SIgma 16mm f1.4

- Canon 22mm f2

- Canon 18-150 IS STM

- Canon EF-S 55-250 IS STM with adapter

- Rokinon 135mm f2.0

Why do you throw away the fantastic 32mm for this group?
I would go for 11-22, 22, 32, 56, 55-250, and 18-150 although I do not have 18-150.

9 lenses

- Laowa 9mm f2.8

- Canon 11-22mm IS STM

- SIgma 16mm f1.4

- Canon 22mm f2

- Canon 32mm f1.4

- Canon 18-150 IS STM

- Sigma 56mm f1.4

- Canon EF-S 55-250 IS STM with adapter

- Rokinon 135mm f2.0

Rokinon 8, 12, TTartisan 17, Canon 11-22, 22, 32, 55-250, 18-150, and Sigma 56. For this combination, I wish there were Rokinon AF 12mm and Sigma 18-55 f/2.8 for EFM mount.
