Solid lens - nice and wide - nice and sharp!

I especially like the excellent edge to edge sharpness AND the focussing ring in manual mode has just enough resistance to stay in position and not drift off it's setting when removing your hand or adjusting zoom etc. Really pleased with this purchase!Read full review...

Excellent value for money ultr-wide lens

Not the fastest lens but ideal for landscape and tripod work. Has a plastic mounting point, but seems pretty durable. I use of an cropped sensor mirrorless camera and the field of view is huge! Great for ultra-wide shot and interesting close-ups.

Image stabilisation is great, especially in combination with internal digital stabilisation.

Great value wide angle zoom lense

Completed my set of lenses. For occasional still use, this STM is light and great value and I managed to secure an ebay discount as well so really pleased. I would recommend a USM lens for video work. Delivery speed was amazing.Read full review...

Fantastic Ultra Wide Angle

If you are on a crop sensor Canon body and looking for an Ultra Wide angle lens then this really is fantastic value for money

Images are sharp, and comparable to some much higher end glass. There is softness in the corners at 10mm but 14mm onwards its not an issue

The Image Stabilisation is handy for handheld low light work although it's always best to use a tripod where possible. Saying that inside museums or dark environments where tripods arent permitted i managed to obtain sharp images at 1/10secs

For this price you wont get a lens built like a tank and it doesnt feel as solid as the Sigma 10-20 but its half the price and in my opinion a much better performer - the only concern i had was the plastic camera mount as opposed to a metal one

At the end of the day you won't feel cheated and it wont disappoint

Good Value, Great for Video.

I got this primarily for video, capturing a wide shot of a wall in a room to teach Guitar. Does this very well.

18mm zoom is similar to the standard canon lens shipped with the 70D (which I use with this lens).

Vignetting not a major problem. Very Quiet for filming due to the STM. Good value for money compared to other lenses.

I would buy another if it broke (and they really do - broke the plastic mount on my 18-55mm and it only works intermittently) so if you exchange lenses often and travel about, be extra careful!

Great lens

I read lots of reviews before buying this lens as I don't have lots of spare cash. I absolutely love it, have been out and about just experimenting with it. It's easy to use, nice weight and sharp pictures. Great buy 😊😊Read full review...

Lightweight but very good optics.

As a cheap wide angle zoom this takes some beating, I have two other wide angle zooms both costing a lot more than this one but I can see no advantage, the plastic mount may not be ideal but I have the same on two othe Canon lens and there has never been a problem, with image stablising as well this lens is a bargain.Read full review...

Pleasantly Surprised.

I am pleasantly surprised at the results from this lightweight lens. I currently use a range of 'L' series glass so the change in weight is remarkable. I do a lot of video with my Canon 80D and this lens is so very versatile I wouldn't be without it - especially for interior shots.
I am now considering adding to my STM range with an 18-135mm as a direct result of my experience with this lens.
I would prefer metal fittings but hey....at this price I'm certainly not complaining and very impressed!

Excellent value for money

This Canon lens is sharp, light to use and carry around, and amazing value for money. Yes, it is plastic throughout but it feels solid and well made with a smooth zoom ring. Overall a bargain.
