• Reviews around focus (3.72 of 5)

    Canon EF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM Lens

    • Super quiet focusing.
    • sharpLight weight,not terribly expensive when on saleCons,Slow focusing,terrible at focusing in movie modevery distorted when at 10mm but can be fixed easily in Photoshop.
    • As we move along to the front of the Canon 10-18mm STM, we’ve got a nice zoom ring which is quite large for the size of the lens and also, just like many other stm lenses, a very nice focus ring
    • The 10-18 has VERY blurry corners and a very slow auto-focus.
    • Focus is fast
    • Continuous/automatic and silent focus are not supported on cameras older than the
    • SUPER FAST focus and it is so quiet that I thought it was broken at first.
    • Quiet auto focus, bright image in daylight, BUT chromatic aberration is awful and low light performance is not good!!
    • The focusing is virtually silent
    • The focus is so smooth.
    • GREAT for recording video because of the silent focus
    • The STM drive rendered pulls and Movie Servo silky smooth on my SL1.The "by wire," i.e., powered manual focus is smooth but lacks the control of a mechanical ring
    • Slow auto focus and less than great image
    • The focus is absolutely silent.
    • Sharp, completely silent focusing, image stablization - it's got it all
    • Build quality is steady and nice, zooming is smooth, and focusing is really quiet
    • I needed a low distortion very wide lens for real estate videos and I also needed image stabilization and quiet focusing.
    • It is silent for video and has a smoother focus when it makes a transition from one subject to another.
    • Its lightweight, got quiet auto focus and image stabilization
    • The STM drive rendered pulls and Movie Servo silky smooth on my SL1.The "by wire," i.e., powered manual focus is smooth but lacks the control of a mechanical ring
    • INCREDIBLE VALUE, CRISP FOCUS, Wide-Angle is fantastic
    • Silent auto focus in Video mode, using on my fantastic Canon 80D
    • Sharp focus
    • Fast focus, pretty sharp, color rendition is pretty great
    • Fast focus, pretty sharp, color rendition is pretty great
    • Super fast focusing.
    • That is what I was looking for in a wide angle zoom.- Light weight, good size.- Very quiet/quick focus
    • Also, the base models do not support silent focus and lack the dual pixel focus that make lenses like this works so well.
    • Clear, quiet, perfect focus
    • The lens is sharp, accurate, focus is quick, and silent.
    • You will get a wide enough angle (just about), with blurry edges but good enough center focus
    • The Bad:No focus number window!
    • However, manual focus is electronic and not mechanical like most other (non-STM) lenses, so it only works when the camera is turned on
    • Also, the base models do not support silent focus and lack the dual pixel focus that make lenses like this works so well.
    • Also great for video is the super quite auto focus, which makes the lens more useful for everyday and family video shooting vs a set manual setting video shot.
    • So far the lens has sharp focus, and believe it or not, it seems better than the 22mm EFM that was made for the EOS m in focusing speed, and accuracy
    • Focus by wire" is somewhat less easy to use than a mechanical link, but its more of a change in paradigm than a handicap.
    • I was a bit worried about the slower f-stop, but I have been completely satisfied with this lens
    • I just wish I could afford the better lens(s)
