Offering a 15-27mm equivalent range on APS-C cameras, the E 10-18mm f/4 OSS lens provides an ultrawide to wide field of view, ideal for capturing architecture, landscapes, or interior environments. A fast, constant f/4 aperture handles challenging lighting scenarios and provides consistent performance when shooting video. The optical configuration employs three aspherical elements and one Super ED element, which achieves high sharpness with minimal distortion. Optical SteadyShot image stabilization reduces the appearance of shake when shooting handheld or at slow shutter speeds, and an internal focus mechanism provides responsive, quiet AF performance.
Applications: A wide-angle, APS-C zoom, this lens’s equivalent 15-27mm zoom range and f/4 constant aperture make it a good choice for photographers whose subjects tend to need some breathing room.
