The Canon RF-S 18-45mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM lens offers a versatile zoom range in a compact package. Specifically designed for Canon's APS-C format R Series mirrorless camera, it provides a zoom range equivalent to 29-72mm from wide-angle to short telephoto.

The retractable design makes it ideal for everyday carry, allowing it to easily fit into bags. The optical design includes two aspherical elements and Super Spectra Coating to minimize distortions and reduce ghosting and reflections.

The Optical Image Stabilizer ensures sharp images, providing up to 4 stops of shake correction or up to 6 stops of Coordinated IS with a compatible camera body. Additionally, the screw-type STM AF system is fast enough to keep up with rapidly moving subjects during continuous focusing, while remaining smooth and quiet, making it ideal for video.
