Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS kit lens

By Matthew Fitzgerald

The Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS lens adds image stabilization to the company's older kit lens, though otherwise it and its predecessor are basically the same. It's compatible with all Canon EF-S digital camera bodies, such as the EOS Rebel XSi and EOS 40D, ...

The step-up option in Canon's medium zoom EF-S line is the 17-55mm IS EF-S f2.8 aperture, which can run you about $800 more, so unless you have to have the faster f2.8 through the whole zoom range, this lens is an excellent value for the price....

The Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS lens adds image stabilization to the company's older kit lens, though otherwise it and its predecessor are basically the same. Design • While the plastic construction of the lens barrel and lens mount make the lens...

Canon EF-S 18-55mm

By Gordon Laing

It's fair to say the majority of people buying the new Canon EOS 400D / Rebel XTi will do so with its kit lens. This bundled EF-S 18-55mm delivers a 3x optical zoom range covering wide angle to short telephoto and is a good general purpose starter ...

By Bob Atkins

The EF-S 18-55IS is the latest incarnation of Canon's general purpose "Kit Lens" for the Digital Rebel line of DSLRs. This time Canon has added a new Image Stabilization (IS) system to the lens, which they claim can add as much as 4 stops of extra ...
