Moving from Canon M system

The Sigma 16 is also a fantastic lens, but maybe more for special occasions. It is larger and heavier than the other EF-M lenses. But it is a great lens especially for parties, family gatherings and environmental portraits. You have to decide for yourself if you need it.

If I replace the EF-S 55-250 with an EF-M 55-250 and replace the EF 50/1.4 with the Sigma 56/1.4 then add a Canon 32/1.4, I'd end up with a kit that weighs about the same.

Canon M50 is 390 gms
Canon EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM 220 gms
Canon EF-M 55-200mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM 260 gms
Canon EF-M 22mm f/2.0 105 gms
Canon EF-M 15-45mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM 130 gms
Canon EF-M 32mm f/1.4 STM 235 gms
Sigma 56mm f/1.4 DC DN 280gms

If I add a Sigma 16/1.4, I'd have to choose between carrying it or the 56 1/4 + 22/2.

But then comes the size and weight. The EF-M is so small and light and needs no adapter. Tough decision.

I think the EF-M might be worth it if I am discarding the adapter altogether.

You are asking difficult questions. 😃

That's why we have experts like you.

I own the Sigma 16, the Canon 32 and the Sigma 56.

This might be the best combination.

I agree. 😃

If you are not using the long end very much, I would replace the EF-S 55-250 with the EF-M 55-200 (or EF-M 18-150mm?).

I could replace the EF-M 15-45 and the EF-S 55-250 with the EF-M 18-150. I think 150mm might give me all the reach I need.

How does the 18-150 compare with the EF-M 15-45, EF-M 55-200 and EF-S 55-250?

It is better than my 15-45 and slightly worse than my 55-200. It is a very versatile lens but it is slower than the 55-200 in their common range (55-150). The 18-150 reaches f/6.3 already at 60mm.

And if you also replace the 50mm with the Sigma 56, you don't need to carry the adapter. Sorry, but I can't take the decisions for you. 😉

The idea is to avoid the adapter altogether.

Good idea.

I am thinking: 11-22 + 22/2 + 32/1.4 + 56/1.4 + 18-150/f 3.5-6.3

This kit would be a few grams over 1.5kg.

Nice kit.

How does the 18-150 compare with the 55-200, 55-250 (EFS), and 15-45?

See above.
