Product Overview
Canon EF-S 10-18mm F4.5–5.6 IS STM is an entry-level ultra wide-angle zoom lens for Canon EF-mount. It covers the APS-C image circle. Introduced by Canon in 2014, it has 14 elements in 11 groups.
Photographers will be pleased by the fact that the lens is internally-zooming, meaning that the barrel does not extend when the focal length is changed. This helps balance and weather sealing; it is also great for long-term durability, as there is less chance for moisture and dirt to get in. Unfortunately, Canon has opted to omit weather sealing for this lens, so owners should pay extra attention when shooting in incremental weathers.
As an ultra wide-angle lens, this zoom can offer a unique perspective that many will appreciate. The built-in image stabilization can be useful for some handheld video work, though one should pay special attention to the corners, which may actually be worse off with the stabilization turned on.
