The Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 II is an ultra-lightweight, compact standard zoom lens engineered specifically for APS-C-format Canon EF-S mount digital SLR cameras, delivering a versatile 29-88mm full-frame equivalent focal length range. Designed as an accessible, everyday walk-around lens, its practical zoom range spans wide-angle coverage at 18mm for landscapes and tight interiors through to a flattering 55mm short-telephoto perspective for casual portraiture and street photography.

It features a reliable onboard DC autofocus motor, smooth manual focusing and zooming rings, and an industry-standard 58mm front filter thread that easily accommodates common circular polarizers and neutral density filters. Native to all Canon EOS APS-C DSLR bodies, it provides straightforward, dependable shooting performance in good ambient light.
