What is a 10-18mm lens used for?
The Canon EF-S 10-18mm IS lens is good for shooting landscapes, architecture photography, groups of people and interior spaces where you have limited spaces. The 10-18mm will give you great depth of field at almost all apertures and will focus quietly, making it great for shooting video too.
What is the difference between EF-S and EF M lenses?
EF-S lenses feature a protective pin that stops these lenses from being mounted on a full-frame EOS camera. Just like the EF-S lenses, EF-M are designed for APS-C sensor cameras. They will only fit Canon EOS M cameras, though, thanks to shorter flange focal distance (distance between lens mount and film/sensor plane).
Can EF-S lenses be used on full frame?
Put simply, Canon EF-S lenses are designed solely for use on Canon APS-C DSLRs. Canon EF lenses are designed to work with full frame and APS-C DSLRs from Canon. Canon EF-S lenses have a smaller image circle that is only big enough to cover the smaller sensor found on Canon APS-C cameras.
What is an 18mm lens?
mm Numbers Mean Focal Length The focal length of your lens is in millimetres (mm) on the lens. A reading of 18-55mm is a focal length range. It means that you can change your focal length. The widest angle is 18mm, and you can zoom in to 55mm. Common zoom lenses are 16-35mm, 24-70mm, and 70-200mm.
Do EF lenses fit EF-S?
The short answer to your question is yes, an EF lens can be used on a crop-sensor (EF-S) Canon camera. The longer answer is that EF-S lenses are designed for crop-sensor lenses, the ‘s’ denotes a smaller image circle, but it’s otherwise a compatible mount.
How wide is 18mm?
| MM | Approximate Size In Inches | Exact Size In Inches |
|---|---|---|
| 17mm | Just short of 11/16 Inch | 0.66929 Inches |
| 18mm | Just short of 3/4 Inch | 0.70866 Inches |
| 19mm | Little under 3/4 Inch | 0.74803 Inches |
| 20mm | Just short of 13/16 Inch | 0.78740 Inches |
WHAT is STM USM lens?
USM stands for Ultrasonic Motor, while STM stands for Stepper Motor. Both are autofocus motors built into different lenses you’ll find in Canon’s lineup. While USM lenses are lauded as being “almost silent” on Canon’s website, you can still pick up the focusing sound on the camera’s microphone when shooting video.
Is the Canon EF-S 10-18mm is a STM lens?
The EF-S 10-18mm IS Lens receives Canon’s still-relatively-new STM (Stepping Motor) AF system. STM-equipped lenses typically focus very quietly and, while not always the fastest-focusing lenses, they focus very smoothly.
Which is better the EF-S 10-18 or the 10-22?
The EF-S 10-18’s max aperture is 2/3 to 1 full stop narrower than the EF-S 10-22’s max aperture at corresponding focal lengths and the 10-22 is not the fastest-available lens in this class. Many photographers do not need the widest apertures in their widest angle lenses, so this attribute will not be an issue for them.
Which is the best STM lens for EOS cameras?
The EF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM lens combines optical excellence with cutting-edge performance, providing an ultra-wide angle of view in a compact, portable package, perfect for EOS cameras with an APS-C sensor.
Is there any distortion in the canon 10-18 STM?
The Canon 10-18 STM has no visible distortion throughout most of its range, except for moderately strong barrel distortion at 10mm and a bit of pincushion distortion at 16mm. For critical use, use these values in Photoshop’s Lens Distortion tool to remove the distortion.
