Pros and cons
According to our camera lens expert
- Thanks to the silent autofocus motor, your subject doesn't startle when you make a photo.
- The image stabilization reduces motion blur, so you can take sharp photos.
- The light intensity is reduced when you zoom, so you can't take handheld photographs as long.

It is quite an asset to my Canon camera. Previously I only had the standard Kit lens from Canon, this lens really adds value, making your photos a lot nicer and sharper. The zoom range 18 - 135 is also very pleasant to work with, so you don't have to change lens quickly.

Perfect all-round lens with super fast autofocus.
- Super fast autofocus
- Very suitable for filming
- Solidly built
- Not very bright
After purchasing a new body with which I can film, I found that my current lenses were not very quiet during autofocus. You can hear the sound of focusing immediately in your video. I find this disturbing. That is why I went looking for a replacement and ended up with this lens: the Canon 18-135mm IS USM. What an outcome! This lens has a very quiet and fast autofocus Nano USM motor. It also makes no sound. In addition, the build quality of this lens is very good, feels sturdy and the range is also useful for general use. I am very satisfied with this lens. Recommended!
