Great overall lens. Focus ring is very smooth (could be a bit wider though). Excellent general purpose focal length for crop sensor cameras. STM motor is almost instant in autofocusing and almost silent. Much better than the 18-55 f3.5-5.6 non STM.

Canon may have changed the finish for a better look but the principal build quality of the lens remains in line to its price class - reads: the plastic quality is still not overly impressive although it's slightly better compared to its non-IS cousin.

Bought this lens for my wife to put on my old T2i for starters. Both her and I were quite pleasantly surprised by the image quality that she achieved with this on her first day out! Wonderful starter lens to say the least. Humm... I may use this as well as a backup for my Sigma 17-70 2.8-4!

Compact and lightweight, the EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM packs together legendary Canon optics, a versatile zoom range and quiet operation for power on the go. Its small size lets it fit just about anywhere, making it a great lens to bring with you on a hike, to a concert or on your everyday...

The Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM is a solid starter lens, but not one that you should buy at full price.

Compact; Good sharpness; Optical stabilization; Inexpensive when bought in a bundle.

Some distortion; Narrow aperture; Dimmed corners when shooting Raw.

Always use Argos first for all your buying

Doesn't fit my camera(mine only takes ef lenses not Ef-S)

The Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM Lens is the 6th Canon APS-C kit lens having this same focal length range (not counting the EF-M variant and a III version available in a limited number of countries).

Announced on 14 February with the EOS 77D and EOS 800D cameras, the new Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens is the sixth model in its category (although this isn't indicated in its name).

Great lens I needed a replacement and it' works great
