Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II Lens
The Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II is the quintessential standard zoom for Canon APS-C DSLR users. Compact, lightweight, and highly versatile, it offers a 28.8-88mm equivalent focal range, making it the perfect “do-it-all” lens for everything from wide-angle landscapes and interior shots to natural-looking portraits. With built-in image stabilization and a refined optical design, it delivers consistent sharpness and clarity for everyday photography.

Versatile Standard Zoom
Everyday Focal Range: The 18-55mm range covers the most commonly used perspectives, allowing you to transition seamlessly from wide group shots to detailed close-ups.

4-Stop Optical Image Stabilizer: Capture sharp handheld images even in low light. This system compensates for up to 4 stops of camera shake, which is essential for maintaining clarity when shooting without a tripod at slower shutter speeds.

Precision Optics: One aspherical element is integrated into the design to suppress distortion and spherical aberrations, ensuring your images remain sharp from the center to the edges throughout the zoom range.

Super Spectra Coating: Each element is treated with Canon’s specialized coating to minimize flare and ghosting, resulting in images with high contrast and neutral color balance, even in bright or backlit conditions.

Handling and Performance
Quick Autofocus: The Micro Motor AF system provides reliable, responsive focusing for both stills and video, with a dedicated AF/MF switch for instant manual control.

Impressive Close-Ups: With a minimum focusing distance of just 9.8 inches at all focal lengths, this lens is surprisingly capable of capturing intimate details and macro-style shots.

Portable Design: Its sleek, feather-light construction makes it the ideal choice for travel, family events, and all-day shooting where a heavy kit would be a burden.

Smooth Bokeh: A rounded six-blade diaphragm helps create a soft, pleasing quality in the out-of-focus areas of your image, perfect for isolating subjects in portraits.

Condition Note
Overall Status: This lens is in GOOD functional condition.

Optical Details: Please note that there is some internal dust and a small scratch located off to the side of the front element. In our testing, these cosmetic imperfections do not impact the final image quality or autofocus performance.
