Equipped with a high-performance image stabilization mechanism An image stabilization mechanism is an advanced technology unique to Canon that moves part of the optical system (correction optical system) in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis in response to image blurring detected by the vibrating gyro in the lens, and refracts light rays in the direction of canceling image blur. The “EF-S18-55mm F3.5-5.6 IS” achieves an image stabilization effect of approximately 4 steps in shutter speed conversion* by adopting a high-performance newly developed image stabilization unit and optimizing the control algorithm. Thus, power is demonstrated even in hand-held night scene photography, etc. in places where a tripod cannot be used. Furthermore, it is possible to automatically determine whether camera shake is due to normal shooting or whether streaming is being performed, and optimal image stabilization can be performed without being aware of mode switching. * Compared to “1/ (focal length x 1.6)” seconds, which is the standard limit for preventing camera shake.

High optical performance By adopting a high-precision aspherical lens, high image quality is achieved throughout the zoom range. The shortest shooting distance reached 0.25 meters. The circular aperture realizes natural bokeh. The incident light transmitted through the lens is reflected by the imaging element part of the digital single-lens reflex camera, and an optical design that is considered so as not to adversely affect image quality is adopted, and by optimizing the coating, it is possible to achieve both suppression of flares and ghosts and good color balance.

Achieve miniaturization and weight reduction A newly developed image stabilization unit that has achieved significant miniaturization due to a reduction in the number of parts, etc., has been adopted. Thus, while equipped with an image stabilization mechanism, a lightweight and compact size is achieved. Also, by making the zoom ring pattern and paint treatment similar to the higher-level model, operability has been improved and a high-quality appearance has been achieved.

others High-speed AF is achieved by installing a high-speed CPU and optimizing AF algorithms, etc. Uses a focus mode switch shaped to prevent inadvertent switching Environmentally friendly design that complies with the European environmental regulation “RoHS Directive”
