Canon RF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM Lens (Canon RF)
Key Features
  • APS-C | f/4.5-6.3 to f/32
  • 16-29mm (Full-Frame Equivalent)
  • STM Stepping AF Motor
  • 7-Blade Diaphragm
An impressively lightweight wide-angle zoom, the RF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM Lens from Canon provides high-quality imagery and peak mobility. Designed for APS-C-format RF-mount mirrorless cameras, this lens gives a 16-29mm full-frame equivalent focal length range. In-lens optical image stabilization offers four stops of correction, or six stops with Coordinated IS when paired with a compatible camera. Two ultra-low dispersion elements and one aspherical element help create sharper images and reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations. The RF-S 10-18mm benefits from Canon's Super Spectra coating, which minimizes ghosting and flare while boosting contrast. Additionally, this lens attaches to both APS-C and full-frame EOS R-series cameras without the need for an adapter because of its RF-mount.

Smooth, Quiet Autofocus
A lead screw-type STM stepping AF motor drives the RF-S 10-18mm, producing near-silent autofocus for photo and video applications. Full-time manual focus override is available allowing for more options when focusing, which is particularly useful for close-up work. Any out-of-focus areas of your frame are rendered more visually pleasing by the lens's seven-blade diaphragm.
Incredibly Lightweight
Weighing just 5.3 oz and measuring 1.8", this wide-angle zoom is the perfect travel companion that allows you to shoot handheld for hours without discomfort. While the lens's compactness allows you to store it in most camera bags, its versatile zoom range is practical for vlogging as well as an array of shooting applications such as landscape, interior, nature, and architecture photography.

any limitations using this with R5 or R8 (besides the crop)? Specifically are all resolutions and framerates available for video
Asked by: Justin
The crop is a significant limitation. In the APS-C mode a 45MP R5 is reduced to about 18MP. And the 24MP R6 crops down ro less than 10MP. In fact, allow Canon's APS-C format R-series offer more resolution. The R10, R50 and R100 are all 24MP cameras, while the R7 offers 32.5MP. For use on the full frame cameras, a much better choice that's compact, lightweight and reasonably affordable is the Canon RF 15-30mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM (currently $449, plus lens hood). In fact, on full frame the 15-30mm gives very similar angle of view range as the 10-18mm does on APS-C, except with the 15-30mm you enjoy the camera's full frame resolution.
