The subject of today’s article is the best travel lens for Canon m50 cameras on the market right now. Due to the Canon m50 being an instant hit with the photography community as well as a ton of vloggers choosing to pick it up as an upgrade over their G7X it is no surprise that we are seeing people reach out to ask for advice on travel lenses for the camera.
When we sat down to plan out this article we really struggled to settle on just one single lens so we have decided to feature two. The first lens is an excellent wide angle lens that will let you capture any epic landscape vistas that you see in all their glory while the second lens is more of an all in one lens that can be a great choice depending on what you are after while traveling.

Coming from Canon you can rest assured that the build quality of the lens is second to none offering both a robust lens as well as a lens that is very easy to use.

Although the low light performance of the lens has received a little criticism over the years we feel the image above, as well as the one later in the article, does a good job of showcasing the capabilities of the lens.
