This would be about 60mm on a crop sensor?

Tempting....

You'd be 64mm on an APS-C

How does this compare to Canon EF-M 22mm lens

Apparently an awesome lens for the m100 which i have been looking for

Realistically you'd want both

The 22mm has an equivalent focal length of ~26mm which is < 1/2 the focal length of the 40mm.

The 22 is apparently a superb lens for it's pricepoint, and would be great for wide angle shots. The 40mm would be better for portraits

Good lens but not an easy focal length on crop.

Be a nice person and enjoy life

This one is kinda a specialty lens. It's the smallest lens Canon has to offer. Pancake lens like this is a good walk around lens. Good focal length.

I got it since it came out. Sometimes you just don't wanna walk around with the 70-200 2.8 for good reasons.

I would probably sell my 50mm 1.8 before this one.

I still use ef lenses with an adapter. Most r lenses are way to pricy for me.

Even though I have a canon rp camera, bought one to use with the adapter. I hear it is sharper compared to 50mm f1.8.

Why would people not be using ef lenses?

There's not exactly a ton of rf lenses and those that do exist are way more expensive then their ef counterpart

I have this lens, it's too tight for most video. 40mm on full frame, 60mm on crop.

This lens is being discontinued by Canon, so it's last call to get a new in box one. It's a great lens for $100. I wouldn't pay $200+ for it these days.

It's decently sharp with nice colours, I used to use it with a t4i.
