Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM

 

The Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM is one of the better starter lenses out there, but it has the same flaws that are common in similar lenses.

Sharp. STM focus motor. Optical stabilization.

Plastic lens mount. Noticeable distortion. Some color fringing and fall-off. Narrow aperture. Hood not included.

Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM

 

If you're looking to upgrade your 18-55mm kit lens, the Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM is a good, but expensive, way to go.

Very sharp at wider angles. Fast aperture. Minimal distortion.

Big. Expensive. Soft at 55mm.
