Compact EF-S zoom for APS-C shooters

The Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM is a lightweight zoom lens built for Canon APS-C cameras. It covers a 29-88mm equivalent range suited to everyday stills and video. The stepping motor and inner focusing system deliver smooth, quiet autofocus during Movie Servo AF. Optical image stabilisation helps reduce camera shake at longer focal lengths.

Variable aperture limits low-light reach

Maximum aperture shifts from f/3.5 at 18mm to f/5.6 at 55mm, restricting shallow depth of field and low-light capability at the telephoto end. Minimum aperture reaches f/22-38 for extended depth of field. The 58mm filter thread accepts standard circular polarisers and ND filters. Close-focusing distance of 0.25m yields 0.36x magnification for near-subject detail.

EF-S mount restricts use to APS-C bodies

The EF-S bayonet fits only Canon APS-C DSLRs; it cannot mount on full-frame EF cameras without mechanical interference. Buyers needing full-frame coverage or a constant f/2.8 aperture must choose a different lens design. The 13-element, 11-group construction includes one aspherical element to control aberrations throughout the zoom range.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 18-55mm kit zoom or a prime with a wider aperture?

The 18-55mm covers 29-88mm equivalent on APS-C with f/3.5-5.6; a prime gives more light but no zoom range.

What does the 18-55mm focal range actually frame on my APS-C camera?

It delivers a 29-88mm equivalent view, shifting from wide group shots at 18mm to portrait-length at 55mm.

How does the EF-S mount limit which bodies I can use this lens on?

EF-S fits only Canon APS-C DSLRs; it will not mount on full-frame EF or RF bodies without an adapter.
