Our take on the Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM
The Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM is a light kit zoom with image stabilization, for Canon EF-S cameras used as a cheap face cam. At a tracked $159 the price held across nine checks from August 9 to October 19, 2026.
It weighs 205g. The stabilizer is rated for up to four stops of shake correction. The STM motor supports Movie Servo AF for smooth, quiet autofocus in video. Minimum focus distance is 0.25 meters across the full zoom range. The aperture is slower than f/2.8 zooms, so a dim room needs more light. Retailer rating is 4.6 across 868 ratings.
