Review on New Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Standard Zoom Lens for Canon DSLR Cameras (White Box) by Danuta Dobroczyska ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The right product for me, there were no problems.

I pair it with the Canon 50D. Glass is an amazing lens for its price, and the fact that it covers all of the necessary FRs is what I enjoy best about it (a new one cost me less than 10,000 on the Internet). For every possible situation. Great color reproduction, and outside portraits come across as very luscious and vibrant. Due to the fact that the hole shuts down very quickly when the FR is increased, using it in a dimly lit environment without a flash can be challenging. The focus is accurate 99 times out of 100, it immediately points at the sun, it becomes less accurate in low-light conditions, but otherwise it performs very well. Although focusing makes a lot of noise and manual adjustment is relatively simple and doesn't provide much information, you can get used to it over time. The stabilizer is quite effective! Indoors, I used a maximum focal length of 135mm and a shutter speed of 1/10s to take photographs that turned out quite sharp. In general, the price of this glass makes up for all of its deficiencies in other respects.

Pros
  • - universal focal lengths incredibly crisp on a covered aperture even in bright sunlight gorgeous solid appearance (particularly when using the hood) good color reproduction fantastic 4-stage stabilizer
Cons
  • - a vacuum cleaner - darkish - build quality, but again the price compensates for this - noticeable vignetting at the long end - the 18 millimeter barrel is pretty powerful
