Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 USM Lens

This standard zoom lens is designed with Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer technology while retaining the compactness and lightness of previous models. Its stabilization allows sharp hand-held shots at shutter speeds up to four stops slower than otherwise possible. It consists of 11 elements in 9 groups and uses an aspherical lens element to correct aberration for excellent image quality throughout the zoom range and a circular aperture for exquisite rendering of out-of-focus backgrounds. Without a lot of size, weight or cost, this lens expands picture-taking possibilities any time slow shutter speeds are needed.

Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 USM Lens - Good For Its Price

Pros Low price, decent performance
Cons Low sharpness wide open, not best for low light
Recommended it? Yes

I have gotten this Canon EF-S 18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6 USM lens with a Canon Digital Rebel kit and later I got the version II wit the Canon Digital Rebel XT. Both are very similar and unfortunately share similar flaws.

The lens is compact and lightweight and, aside from being included as a part... Read full review »

For such a cheap piece of equipment this thing works fairly well. It is much better then the previous incarnation without IS though I don't believe it is the IS that makes the world of difference.

Cheap kit lens

byalan6 Jan 19, 2007
8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros A cheap kit lens capable of very good photos if used within its limitations.
Cons Avoid the extreme wide angle in strong light where flare can be a major problem.
Recommended it? Yes

I have used this lens for about a month - it came as the kit lens with the K10D. I have been very satisfied with many of the pictures from this lens, including landscapes and portraits.

At optimum aperture (about f8) this lens can produce very sharp pictures with faithful colour... Read full review »

Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS SLR Lens

The EF-S 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 looks destined to carry the flag as the kit lens sold with virtually every Canon D SLR over the next few years (and that counts as an awful lot of lenses), so it really needs to perform well in the face of some impressive competition. Fortunately for them, Canon have indeed upped the ante with this new lens; it's much better than its predecessor, especially in terms of sharpness in the corners and at wider apertures, and with reduced chromatic aberrations to boot. Indeed overall it's an extremely well-behaved little lens, with very few nasty surprises for the user, and a remarkably good image stabilization unit; indeed Canon's main concern may ultimately become whether users have as much incentive to upgrade to more expensive optics as they did before. The Canon 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 EF-S IS Lens is a standard zoom lens that features the smaller size image circle, exclusively designed for EOS Digital Rebel and other cameras using the "APS-C" size sensor. The focal length is equivalent to approx. 28-90mm in 35mm format. This makes it ideal as a basic everyday lens. This lens features Canon's optical Image Stabilizer technology, which provides up to 3-4 stop compensation for image blur caused by camera shake and slow shutter speeds. This ensures clear, crisp images, even in dim light. Designed specifically for digital photography, the lens has specially shaped lens elements and Super Spectra coatings to suppress ghosting and flare, which can be caused by reflections off digital camera sensors. An exclusive optional lens hood can further reduce the incidence of flare. Note! Only fits on the EOS 10D, 20D, 30D, 40D, 50D & 60D or Digital Rebel XT XTi XS XSi T1i T2i T3 T3i SLR cameras

Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS SLR Lens

Equipped with Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer (IS) technology, the Canon EF-S 18-55mm standard zoom lens is ideal for just about any application. IS technology compensates for camera shake by providing the equivalent effect of a shutter speed up to four stops faster. This allows you to take sharp handheld shots even in low-light conditions--a must for sports and nature photography. The lens also offers an aspherical lens element that corrects for aberration, thus producing a topnotch image throughout the zoom range, and a circular aperture that exquisitely renders out-of-focus backgrounds. Despite its minimal size, weight, and cost, the lens expands the picture-taking possibilities any time slow shutter speeds are needed.
