EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS

The Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS is a versatile zoom lens designed for APS-C format Canon EOS DSLRs, providing a 28.8-216mm equivalent focal length range that covers wide-angle to telephoto perspectives. The lens incorporates optical elements including one ultra-low dispersion element and one aspherical element to minimize chromatic aberrations, distortion, and spherical aberrations throughout the zoom range. A Super Spectra coating is applied to reduce flare and ghosting, improving contrast and color accuracy in bright lighting conditions.

An optical image stabilizer built into the lens helps reduce the effects of camera shake, enabling sharper handheld shooting in low-light situations and with slower shutter speeds. The autofocus system uses a Micro Motor that delivers quick focusing performance, with a dedicated AF/MF switch for easy selection between automatic and manual focus modes. The lens has a compact design weighing 455 grams, includes a rounded six-blade diaphragm for smooth bokeh, and has a minimum focus distance of 45 centimeters.
