Canon EF-S 10-18mm F/4.5-5.6 IS STM Lens
The Canon EF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM Lens is a wide-angle zoom lens designed specifically for EOS APS-C DSLRs, where it provides a 35mm-equivalent focal length range of 16-28.8mm. The optical design incorporates one aspherical element, one UD (Ultra-low dispersion) element, and one large-diameter element to minimize chromatic aberrations throughout the zoom range and contribute to notable image sharpness and clarity. Enhanced lens coatings have also been applied to lens elements to minimize lens flare and ghosting for maintained image contrast and color neutrality.
Benefitting working in difficult lighting conditions, an Optical Image Stabilizer has been integrated into the lens design to minimize the appearance of camera shake by up to effective four shutter speed steps. Pairing well with Canon's EOS Movie Servo AF, an STM stepping AF motor produces a smooth, near-silent focusing performance that is further benefitted by a rear-focus design, high-speed CPU, and intelligent AF algorithms for quickened focusing. Full-time manual focus override can also be utilized for fine-tuned focusing precision as closely as 8.7".
Key Features:
-Wide-angle zoom lens specifically designed for APS-C-sized sensors provides a 35mm-equivalent focal length range of 16-28.8mm.
-Four-group optical zoom system helps to realize a compact, lightweight form factor.
-One UD element, one aspherical element, and one large-diameter element have been incorporated into the optical design to minimize aberrations and distortion throughout the zoom range.
-Enhanced lens coatings have been applied to lens surfaces to reduce flare and ghosting for maintained image contrast and color fidelity.
-An Optical Image Stabilizer helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake by up to four stops for improved usability in difficult lighting conditions.
-An STM stepping AF motor realizes smooth, near-silent autofocus that is complemented by a rear focus system, advanced AF algorithms, and a high-speed CPU for fast AF performance.
-Full-time manual focus permits critical focusing precision, even in AF mode.
-A seven-blade circular diaphragm helps to produce an aesthetic out-of-focus quality.
A wide-angle zoom lens, purpose-built for APS-C EOS cameras
Designed for use on crop-sensor Canon EOS DSLRs, this EF-S 10-18mm lens is an ultra-wide zoom lens, perfect for Landscapes, travel, and any other application that benefits from a view far wider than your eyes can envision. Further benefiting users of the APS-C format, the EF-S 10-18mm lens is compact and lightweight, allowing your gadget bag to retain its portable features so you can keep it with you at all times.
Shooting landscapes at dawn or capturing dark and moody interiors is not an issue with this lens mounted on your camera, thanks to a built-in Image Stabiliser. The stabilizer in this lens saves you from camera shake by offering up to 4 shutter stops improvement, meaning you can contemplate leaving your tripod at home when you are packing.
Wide sweeping videos can be easily captured with the 10-18mm lens, thanks not only to its wide zoom range, but also its built-in Stepping motor which drives the autofocus. This focus motor is accurate and speedy and important for movie capture, it is smooth and near-silent in its performance. Whether you are standing before a still and steady subject that you can take your time composing, or a fast-moving subject that requires immediate action, this STM motor does the job for you with minimal fuss and without being noticed.
Other Key Features
- Out-of-focus areas are of a smooth and natural appearance, thanks to a 7-blade circular aperture
- Image quality is superb, due to a 4 group optical zoom system, which includes a large diameter element, an Aspherical element, and a UD element
- Advanced lens coatings result in a reduction of ghosting and flare and an improvement in contrast and color reproduction
