Thanks, guys.

I am keeping the M system. I am still in 2 minds about having two systems (aka RF or RF-S).

I will definitely add 32/1.4 and Sigma 56/1.4, and maybe the R10 + 18-150.

I hope this is the correct Sigma version (my first 3rd party lens)

Yes that's it.

I thought you already owned the 32mm? You list it as one of your current lenses in the first post.

But I would wait with the R10.

I have decided to wait on the R10.

I don't have the 32/1.4, but I was about to get it before analysis-paralysis got hold of me. I worried about what would happen to the M system since Canon has stopped adding more bodies and lenses. I was wondering if investing more in M system lenses such as the 32mm f/1.4 (or the Sigma 30/1.4, 56/1.4, 16/1.4) makes any sense.

I see the future of photography as mobile cameras replacing all the kit lens (aka lenses slower than F/4) compact sensor (smaller than FF) systems. Hence the RF mount might suffer in the long term.

What about the Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN? It could be useful when my 11-12 does not have enough light.

Should I replace my 55-250 EF-S STM lens with the EF-M equivalent and ditch the adapter?

Should I get the Canon 32mm f/1.4 or get this trinity from Sigma?

FYI, on the weight front, I am currently travelling with the Canon M50, 11-22, 22/2, 15-45, EF-S 55-250, and 50/1.4 with an adapter in a sling bag.

The 56/1.4 and 32/1.4 could fit where my 50/1.4 (with adapter) is in my bag. That only leaves me to make room for the 16/1.4, which is not a small lens (3"D x 4"L).
