For a long time I had been quite hesitant about purchasing these long zoom all-in-one lenses - mainly due to the inherent tradeoffs from trying to cover such a long focal range. But I stumbled upon this lens on eBay (from a great seller), who had 30 of them - new, separated from the kit in a white...

Covers a great range of a 29-240 MM focal range; Performance surprisingly good for an all-in-one lens of this genre; Surprisingly great build quality

Performance decreases as to approach 100 MM; Plastic lens mount; Canon should have made it wider at the long end (like an equivalent 24 MM); Can does not provide a lens hood

I replaced my Canon G10 which served as me travel, work and general knock around camera. It served me well and for anything professional I use my 5D Mk II. I bought an M5 and the 18-150 lens for a lot of reasons. This lens is so good for travel. From wide angle to portraits to telephoto.

Excellent product. Very helpful was the provided review by Crutchfield. The ordering process was smooth.

This is a great general overall lens and it stays on my Canon M6.I have had no problems with the lens hood that I ordered with it. The only issue I have with the lens is that the part of the lens that moves to zoom in and out seems to slide a bit too easy, but not enough to worry about shooting at...

I am very pleased with my M50 and have expanded it's capability with this lens - all results so far have been sharp and using the motor drive took some great pictures of the Flying Scotsman thundering through my local station. Buy one if you have an M50 - it's a permanent fixture on my camera.

Great Features; Great Picture Quality; Lightweight; Simple Controls

I have been waiting two years for Canon to come out with a 18-135, 18-150, or 18-200 lens to fit my M3. They finally did it, and this will definitely be my favorite lens if not the only lens that I would be using.

There are unavoidable compromises required to keep a lens reasonably sized and priced, while at the same time offering a long zoom range and covering an APS-C image sensor. The Canon EF-M 18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM sacrifices some light-gathering capability, shows some barrel distortion, and doesn't...

Compact; 8.3x zoom range; Crisp optics; Image stabilization

Soft edges and barrel distortion at 18mm; Dim corners when shooting Raw; Plastic lens mount

Canon's mirrorless system has a small, but growing, library of lenses. The EF-M 18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM ($499.99) is an attractive option for photographers who want an all-in-one solution, as it has a long zoom range and a compact design that matches well with EOS M bodies. It makes some of the optical compromises you expect from a lens with a big zoom ratio, including a narrow maximum aperture, and soft edges and some barrel distortion at 18mm, but is a fine example of what a long zoom mirrorless lens can be. It's worth adding to your kit if you use the Canon system and want an all-in-one zoom. Design The EF-M 18-150mm covers a long range, but measures in at 3.4 by 2.4 inches (HD), weighs just 10.6 ounces, and supports 55mm front filters. Its weight is controlled via liberal use of plastic, including the lens mount, but the 18-150mm doesn't feel cheap. It's available in a graphite black or silver finish. Front and rear caps are included, but not a hood. The lens does extend wh...

The EF-M 18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM is a small lens that covers a big zoom range, and a solid choice for Canon mirrorless shooters who don't want to fiddle with frequent lens changes.

Compact; 8.3x zoom range; Crisp optics; Image stabilization

Soft edges and barrel distortion at 18mm; Dim corners when shooting Raw; Plastic lens mount

An entire city skyline, captured in one shot. Zoom in to catch even the glass panels on a skyscraper. Your best friend in front of a magnificent canyon, and a close-up of their face. Capture all of this and more, with just one lens.

With the M6 recently joining Canon's expanding mirrorless range, the 18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 is the perfect all-round companion. The 8.3x optical zoom offers an astonishing 29-240mm 35mm equivalent, meaning you can capture landscapes, portraits and even wildlife shots with just one lens.
