Meike 8595755157 25mm F1.8 Manual Lens for Canon EOS-M

The Meike 25mm f/1.8 is a manual focus prime lens designed exclusively for Canon EOS-M mount mirrorless cameras with APS-C sensors. Its 7-element, 5-group optical design includes multi-layer coatings to minimize reflections and maintain contrast, while the f/1.8 maximum aperture opens up possibilities for shallow depth-of-field work and low-light shooting. On an APS-C body, the 25mm focal length delivers a roughly 40mm equivalent field of view — a natural, versatile perspective well-suited to street photography, casual portraits, and everyday documentation.

Built with a metal body, the lens feels solid despite its compact 60.5mm by 40.9mm dimensions and accepts standard 49mm filters. The manual focus ring provides direct, mechanical control over focusing, and the 0.25-meter minimum focus distance lets you move in close when needed. Because this is a fully manual lens with no electronic contacts, shooters will need to set their Canon EOS-M camera to "Release without lens" or manual mode. Aperture is controlled directly on the lens ring from f/1.8 through f/16. For photographers comfortable with manual exposure and focus, the Meike 25mm offers genuine creative control at an accessible price point.
