Beginners in video and still photography can make good use of this lens, as well as the more advanced pros. Key features include:

• 10–18mm ultra-wide zoom (equivalent to 16-29mm on full-frame camera).
• Image Stabilization, for even greater hand-held sharpness and video steadiness.
• Compact and lightweight design, making it an excellent choice for travel.
• A new optical design, optimized for RF lens mount and APS-C sensor size.

The constant f/2.8 aperture allows for optimal low light performance and provides flattering bokeh for portraits at any focal length. In-lens optical image stabilization offers five and a half stops of correction, or eight stops with Coordinated IS when paired with a compatible camera.
