Frequently asked questions

Can you use EF-M lenses on EOS R or EF cameras?

No. According to Canon's compatibility chart, EF-M lenses only work on EOS M series cameras, not on EOS R System cameras or EF/EF-S DSLRs. The EF-M flange distance of 18 mm is shorter than RF (20 mm) and EF (44 mm), so no adapter could place the lens at the right distance from the sensor.

Can you use EF and EF-S lenses on Canon EOS M cameras?

Yes, with the Mount Adapter EF-EOS M, which accepts EF, EF-S, TS-E and MP-E lenses and, according to Canon, offers full compatibility. The 1.6x crop factor of the APS-C sensor applies. RF and RF-S lenses, on the other hand, do not fit EOS M cameras.

Is Canon EF-M discontinued?

Yes. Canon Japan formally discontinued the last EOS M cameras in October 2023, ending the EF-M system, and Canon's mirrorless focus is now on RF and RF-S. Existing EF-M cameras and lenses keep working, and EF lenses can still be used via an adapter.

Which third-party lenses are available for Canon EF-M?

Autofocus lenses for EF-M include models from Sigma (16, 30 and 56 mm f/1.4 DC DN), Viltrox (23, 33 and 56 mm f/1.4) and Tamron (18-200 mm f/3.5-6.3 Di III VC). A common alternative is adapting EF and EF-S lenses.

What is the crop factor of Canon EF-M?

It is 1.6x, because EF-M cameras have APS-C sensors, so a 22 mm focal length frames like about 35 mm on full frame. Canon introduced the mount in 2012 with the EOS M, and its flange distance is 18 mm (EF: 44 mm).
