Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Standard Zoom Lens Features

In response to demands of photographers, 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.

Comments about Canon Canon 18-55mm EF-S f/3.5-5.6 IS Standard Zoom Lens:

This is a nice lens. Like a kit lens, it's not the sturdiest lens around, but overall very good. I bought this to replace my old 18-55 non-IS lens and have been really happy! It's hard to keep clean, if there's dust around it'll find your lens!
