The type of photography that you are planning to use is an important decision factor. Here we have evaluated the Fujifilm 27mm F2.8 and the Canon EF-M 22mm f2 STM for their suitability to various photography scenarios:
Size and Weight Comparison The size of a lens is a crucial factor to consider when comparing two lenses. Canon EF-M 22mm f2 STM is the longer of the two lenses at 24mm. The Fujifilm 27mm F2.8 with a length of 23mm, is 1mm shorter. On the other hand, there is no difference between the max diameters of these lenses, both coming at 61mm.
Below you can find a scaled side-by-side image of Fujifilm 27mm F2.8 and Canon EF-M 22mm f2 STM to get a better idea of how their sizes compare in real life.
Comparison image of the Fujifilm 27mm F2.8 and the Canon EF-M 22mm f2 STM Size and Weight The weight of a lens is equally significant as its external dimensions, particularly if you intend to handhold your camera and lens combination for extended periods. Fujifilm 27mm F2.8 weighs 78g, which means it is 27g (25%) lighter than the Canon EF-M 22mm f2 STM which has a weight of 105g.
Filter Threads
The Fujifilm 27mm F2.8 has a filter size of 39mm whereas the Canon EF-M 22mm f2 STM has a 43mm diameter. Larger filters are generally more expensive than the smaller ones given all the other features are equal.
Below are links to the 39mm filters that we recommend you to consider for the Fujifilm 27mm F2.8:
And these are the 43mm filters that we recommend for the Canon EF-M 22mm f2 STM:
Lens Mounts
The Fujifilm 27mm F2.8 has the Fujifilm X lens mount whereas the Canon EF-M 22mm f2 STM has the Canon EF-M lens mount . Some of the latest released cameras that are compatible with these mounts are Fujifilm X-T30 III , Fujifilm X-E5 and Fujifilm X-M5 for the Fujifilm X Mount and
Focal Range
Fujifilm 27mm F2.8 is a prime lens with fixed focal lenght of 27mm which has an effective (full-frame 35mm equivalent) focal range of
40.5mm when used on a APS-C / DX format camera.
On the other hand, the Canon EF-M 22mm f2 STM is a prime lens with fixed focal lenght of 22mm which has an effective (full-frame 35mm equivalent) focal range of 33mm when used on a APS-C / DX format camera.
