Pros and cons

According to our camera lens expert

  • Thanks to the large zoom range, you can take photos of athletes and wild animals at a large distance.
  • The built-in image stabilization reduces motion blur, so you can use shutter speeds that are up to 7 stops slower.
  • The low 310g weight makes the lens suitable to take on the go.
  • This lens isn't suitable for Canon EOS R models with a full-frame sensor.

Description

With the large zoom range of the Canon RF-S 18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM, you can easily take photos of subject that are far away. You can use this lens on Canon EOS R mirrorless cameras with an APS-C sensor. These cameras have a crop factor of 1.6, so the lens is zoomed in even more. This makes it suitable to take photos of athletes from the sidelines of the field, for example. The built-in image stabilization prevents motion blur. You can use shutter speeds that are up to 7 stops slower when you take photos by hand. If you use the lens at 18mm, you have a wide image angle which allows you take photos of landscapes. For a zoom lens with this range, the lens is very light. This allows you to easily take it on the go.

Only a good lens for busy photos with center focus

  • Light weight
  • Sharp photo in the middle for zoom cutout
  • Easily recognizes an object that is far away.
  • Halo is present in photos, especially in sky photos.

When using an APS-C system camera: The photos are sharp in the center, but then a halo forms on empty surfaces such as air. A crop of the photo is therefore possible, but especially of the center. The corners of the photo are sometimes blurry, while this is not logical considering the distance between the object.

Ideal lens for travel

  • Wide range
  • Very quiet autofocus
  • Light lens, in relation to zoom range
  • No separate button for AF/MF

For a lens with this zoom range, the weight is really low. Ideal lens for traveling. This lens covers most situations for holiday photos. The lack of an AF/MF button on the lens makes it necessary to always adjust this setting in the camera menu. With a maximum aperture of f/3.5, this lens is less suitable for low-light situations.
