Canon EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Standard Zoom Lens for Canon DSLR Cameras |
| Product DescriptionCompact, lightweight and a wide magnification range - this standard zoom lens features a wide focal length range from normal to telephoto equivalent to 29-320mm in the 35mm format. It features an Optical Image Stabilizer for up to 4-stops of effective correction even at full zoom. Since Canon's optical image stabilization system is in the lens, not in the camera, you can see the stabilized, steadier images through the viewfinder. And the circular aperture can give beautiful background blur effects. This new wide zoom ratio EF-S lens delivers excellent high-speed performance at an affordable price.ReviewsThis is a great lens to keep on the camera for all around shooting. I purchased it so I would only have to take one lens on a trip. The only downside is it is a bit heavy, but the pictures have been very good.Canon EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Standard Zoom Lens for Canon DSLR Cameras
I am sometimes dismayed by the people who like to quote minute details about some arcane specs on these lenses.
The proof is how it works in real life.This is a great lens that covers wide angle to telephoto. The image stabilization gives me extra stops of light. I always have great results. This is the only lens I carry anymore for landscapes, portraits and weddings.
The lens is soft at its widest - especially on the edges. A real bummer.
The lens is fast - works very good when I photograph sports or dance performance. It is just not as clear and crisp as I want it to be.
For the money - half way to an L lens - save your money and get the 70-200 L or 24-105 L
I love the range of this lens. It is a bit heavy but that was not a surprise. It is very well built and, so far, the quality of images produced is excellent. I am just an amateur so when I say "excellent" I mean the pictures look great to me.
I didn't perform hundreds of technical tests, I'm just loving the results I can see. I own a faster non zoom 50mm lens that I prefer when that range is appropriate but if you want to attach just one "does it all" lens, I would say get this one. It is a good value.
I am new to Digital SLR. When looking for this type lens my son did alot of the research work and decided that this lens was the best for what I am looking for.
