- New EF-S standard zoom lens1 with more compact design and significant size reduction (18% reduction in length) compared to EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM
- Focal length equivalent to approx. 29-88mm in 35mm full-frame format
- - 12 elements in 10 groups optical lens construction and 1 PMo aspherical lens element to suppress lens aberrations
- Quiet and smooth continuous AF is supported in movie shooting and Live View shooting by the lead-screw type Stepping Motor (STM)2
- Full Time Manual focusing is supported
- Image stabilizer (IS) offers shake compensation up to 4-stop shutter speed3, and automatically detects normal shooting and panning for optimal compensation
- 7-blade circular aperture for beautiful bokeh
- 0.25x maximum magnification (at 55mm) and 0.25m minimum focusing distance
- Lens coatings are optimized for digital cameras to ensure excellent color balance and minimize ghosting and flare
- Inner focusing design allows overall length unchanged during focus for ease of operation with filters
- Optional Lens Hood EW-63C further enhances flare resistance
