an OK lens for the price, but you will outgrow it fairly quickly if you care about your photography

cheap; lightweight and sharpness is OK

There are much better lenses for not that much more money

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Consistent Output; Easily Interchangeable; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Lightweight; Nice Bokeh

Difficult to Clean; Weak Casing

My Canon Digital Rebel came with this lense. I would recommend that if you are planing to buy a Cano

Value; Sharpness; great for lanscape and sky pictures

Not long enough (not enough zoom); hard to pull in some subjects

I suggest this lens because it isn't too hard on the pocket. and combined with the 55-250 IS it would provide a easy to carry IS kit, and would not cost to much. It is a very nice lens for beginners. If i got to do it again i would.

Well to sum it up quickly YES; The IS System is very helpful in low light situation; Helps provide a very sharp picture compare to the Non-IS version of this lens

No real noticeable weakness as of yet; Focuses fast (for the price) and no back or front focus problems.

This is a typical Canon lens, bundled with many of their DSLR cameras. It provides variation without spending a lot of money, and the quality of photos is excellent.

Can do close up photos, as well as wide angle; provides a lot of variation

Plastic parts; but for the money it is just right

Ett fint objektiv, inte så väldigt ljusstarkt däremot. Det följde med kameran och jag är nöjd med det.

Bra att man kan zooma ut mycket; Bra fokus

Inte så jätte ljusstarkt

I use it where my prime lenses don't cover. It is good at most lengths and does well from the 18 to 40 area. I don't use it all the time because I have a good selection of primes, but it does help me stay prepared for anything.

This is a great lightweight all purpose lens when you can only take one lens and not sure what you are doing that day!

Easily Interchangeable; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Lightweight

Blurry Focus

Canon's EF-S 18-55mm kit lenses have always been small, light and cheap and the latest versions have the very useful image stabilization feature. These lenses have been and continue to be a good value when purchased as a starter lens in a DSLR kit, but they have never been a strongly desired lens...

Right now, i got this as a gift to myself for christmas and wont open it until christmas. Im a little nervous, the box was super small and didnt seem packaged too well. But i cant write a review yet as to how it works.
