DPReview reviews the EF-M 32mm 1.4

DPReview has completed their review of the impressive little EF-M 32mm 1.4. They had a lot of good things to say about this lens, and from having one personally, it's a lens that if you have an EOS M camera, don't walk - run, to your nearest store and get one today. it really is that good.

They had little negative to say about the lens and were positive about it in their conclusions;

Overall, I’ve genuinely enjoyed using the EF-M 32mm F1.4 STM. It handles well on the M50 and takes up little space, and is clearly quite capable of delivering great results across many different situations. If Canon builds out the EF-M range with additional prime options of a similar standard, we may be looking at a very different system before long.

What we like:

• Compact and relatively lightweight
• Very good sharpness wide open
• Focus ring has large angle of rotation for fine adjustment
• Surprisingly little lateral chromatic aberration
• Relatively well protected against flare without hood

What we don't like:

• No image stabilization
• Longitudinal chromatic aberration noticeable in some situations
• Noticeable vignetting and cat’s-eye-shaped bokeh at widest few apertures
• Neither hood nor case supplied as standard
