Posting this for a friend ,he has got a Canon EOS-M adaptor but it has no tripod mount fitted ,does anyone know what these bits are actually called and where you can get them from ,linky would help if poss.
It has one, but they’re not interchangeable.Does the Mieke one have a built in tripod plate then? I'm not talking about the actual adapter itself, just the foot which looks handy for any make if it fits them.
Are you concerned that the air in the Meike one will transmit light differently to the air in the Canon one
Interesting one here though LINK
Strangely it seems ‘’useful’!
EnjoyJust a quick one to say my M50 arrived today and im very happy with it. Its obviously a step back as far as ergonomics go compared to my 80D, and this will take some getting used to, but one thing ive noticed is that its not full of features i dont really use.
Glaring omissions that i might miss are the ability to adjust how the Auto ISO affects shutter speed, and the ability to have the playback zoom in to 100% at the AF point. I can live without both though.
I seem to have lost my Canon EF-EFM adaptor so i got a cheap Commlite one. Seems fine although there is a tiny bit of movement. Nothing ill worry about, but i will keep an eye out for the Canon version at a good price.
Very early days and i have a bit of reading to do, but with the promised sunny weekend upon us im sure ill have it all mastered by Monday.
I really do want the 18-150 though. My 18-135 works fine, and isnt too bulky, but i can imagine having the 18-150 on it will make it a bit easier to hold.
lll post some shots over the weekend.
Let me know how it does with adapted ef lensesCheers Jon. So far having fun but also finding my way. Ive had a A6000 so I should be used to the EVF, but it feels really strange seeing a final image in it.
Will do. I don’t have any EF-M lenses yet so i have no choice but to use my EF/S lenses.Let me know how it does with adapted ef lenses
Awsome. This is a very good outcome for future ff mirrorless as I won't be selling any more of my ef lensesWill do. I don’t have any EF-M lenses yet so i have no choice but to use my EF/S lenses.
So far the 18-135 USM Nano and 50mm f/1.8 STM are working flawlessly on it. Just as fast as on my 80D. I’m used to the speedy live view shooting on my 80D (RIP) and 5D4, but amazed at the speed when using the EVF. It seems more instant and less clunky than using the LCD, although that dose of course work just as well.
Il be taking the 10-18, 18-135 and maybe my 135L out tomorrow. There is a Canal boat festival at Paddington basin/Little Venice this weekend so that should be a great op to test it all out.

Tired the 70-300L out thing morning. Pretty impressive although not a combo id walk around all day with. I just dont trust it hanging off that adaptor.

I’m glad I got this for this weekend, otherwise I don’t think I’d be out and about much either. Getting stuck in a rut these days as far as getting out shooting goes. Even that shot above was taken from my kitchen window lol.
I think the 18-135 is almost the prefect lens for these cameras. I loved the STM version but do now prefer the Nano version, purely for the AF speed. I really want to get the M 18-150 but not convinced it’s better than the 18-135, although it’s smaller.
I’m going to test out my 24 f/2.8 pancake lens today, but I expect ill sell it and get the 22 f/2 again. Also going to order the 11-22 to replace my 10-18.
It’s funny but my original intention was to just use my existing lenses on the M50, but now I have it I want to go smaller. From what ive read the 11-22 is better than the 10-18 anyway so that’s a good move, but it will be hard giving up my 18-135. I’ve always had a crop camera or two, even when I went full frame, but I sold my 80D and gave my 650D away, so now it’s just FF and M so no need to keep EF-S lenses in the long term.
