The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.  | sent on May 19, 2019 Pros: Considerable as everything do, stabilization, light weight, used price Cons: Lens with closed diaphragm, sharpness and in some cases chromatic aberrations Opinion: I recommend it to an audience that is approaching the world of photography. It's a simple lens to use, and as good as everything do without too many pretensions. A more careful eye could see the little sharpness that there is on the lower diaphragms and some chromatic aberration that correctable in post production. To stay happy spending advice to buy it used that we can find it even under 200 euros. |
  | sent on January 05, 2019 Pros: Usability - focal ranges - focus Cons: I have not found any details Opinion: As a simple photography enthusiast I can only say well about this goal. I use it, with Canon 70d, mostly outdoors, in AV mode, almost always between f/8 and f/9. Rarely "canno" a picture and if it happens it's my fault. I always got beautiful images, sharp and excellently contrasted. Shot in jpeg format, with very minimal post-production. I report a more than good AF and a high degree of usability due to the range of focals most in use. I use it, sometimes, even indoors, but accompanied by the external flash Canon 430EX III-RT, with really remarkable results. From time to time, I also use it for movies with more than excellent results: their viewing, on a full hd TV, is excellent. I have read several negative or mostly sufficient opinions on the performance of this goal. That's not the case with me. Maybe, I was lucky enough to find a very good specimen. Based on my experience, I recommend it without any remora. UPDATE: On 7d Mark II makes even better than on the 70d, especially on the AF side which is really great. The color yield is also much better. |
 | sent on October 03, 2017 Pros: imperceptible AF noise, wide range of focal excursion, sufficiently sharp Cons: sharpness loss at the maximum focal length, ring nut for MF, weight Opinion: I've been using this lens for 3 years continuously on my 500D. The wide focal length allows you to take advantage of it in a variety of situations (from landscapes, night photography, to wildlife photography) to achieving more than dignified results: in particular, the AF is totally silent so you can go completely unnoticed when you need to make silence so as not to scare the subject. It does not shine for sharpness, especially at 18 and 135 mm, but overall it is acceptable. The lens, compared to the other zoom, is quite compact and lightweight; however, its weight is not indifferent, especially if brought to the neck during long hikes. For this reason, I decided to temporarily set it to use lighter and sharper fixed optics. |
 | sent on June 23, 2017 Pros: AF speed, good sharpness, lightweight, good stabilization Cons: Excessive distortion at 18 drops sharpness to the focal length Opinion: Saying a good handy goal, aside from almost unusable at 18 and with obvious drop in the max focal length is good across the range, it is not "sharp" but well defined on all other focal points even at TA - For what it would cost I would say that I am Well spent money and would recommend it without any shadow of doubt. Given the previous reviews I would say that it is too underestimated compared to the actual potential it offers. |
  | sent on March 03, 2017 Pros: Value, AF fast enough though noisy, zoom range, light weight, stabilizzazione.rn Cons: Dim (but it is an all-rounder), it lacks the scale of distances, not exceptional sharpness between f. 3.5 and f. 7.2, slight vignetting at TA, dust accumulates in the barrel, questionable mechanical construction. Opinion: I used it for more than three years during which he gradually accumulated dust inside the front lens, up to give me a curious problem: a 18 mm. the camera reads 44 mm. and Aperture 5.0 instead of f. 3.5 as it should be. I used it with good satisfaction as a handyman, especially in meetings and events where he revealed to the occasion ... a little 'less in photographs of rural and urban landscapes. Okay as a travel lens disengaged ... ie holidays, travel in a group, and so on. To those who wish to achieve real photographic reports during their holidays I would recommend the excellent 15-85 because it combines the versatility of a handyman also an excellent optical quality. |
user98878  | sent on September 10, 2016 Pros: Versatile, MAF quick and silent, lightweight Cons: Usable from f / 7.1 - f / 8 on, Classicon Canon: assensa lens hood Opinion: Coming from a 1100D with 18 55 70 300 and Tamron, I was no longer in the skin while awaiting the arrival of the 70D with 18,135 .stm, mainly because I could use it in all those occasions when they made me comfortable focal lengths 55 to 70 and that for those from 70 to 135 would not have to change lenses. But the joy was not complete: from 18 to 24 and from 95 to 135 the quality drops dramatically, as drops at full aperture to f / 8. 8 to 11 from the best. The photo on the TA looks like a painting done in watercolor. Ideal if you have to use the light of day, for the Sunday trip is more than decent, but would not recommend to make a church service (but not at the restaurant?); for what we want fixed. Maybe with time I became too demanding ... rn |
 | sent on April 21, 2016 Pros: value for money, AF, construction and mechanical, focal range, stabilization and discreet nitidezza.rn Cons: just enough brightness, ring manual focus insensitive Opinion: I am using it for over a year and previously had no STM version. I would share the same impressions of RICCARDOB82: this is a discrete lens a little underestimated. Personally I find it very practical (for travel or vacation has a focal range covering most situations), is fitted with a discreet sharpness, what we all try desperately ..... but that often depends on external factors such as clarity air, or camera shake that is sometimes perceived as a lack of the lens, precision of focus .... etc. (A f / 7 - f / 8 is its "sweet spot"). In this regard, I invite you to read an interesting web page about Ken Rockwell http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/lens-sharpness.htm site. Sure there are higher quality objectives, but at this price, this is a lens that makes his honest work. |
 | sent on March 07, 2016 Pros: Price, focal length, weight, autofocus, image stabilization. Cons: just enough image quality and low in TA. Opinion: I purchased in a kit with the 700D. Great start, but then we do not longer content. Suitable for photos with vacations and trips unassuming. "Obligation" to close at least af 8. Also good for photos indoors with flash. In short, a handyman lens but it does not give what all of us expect. There are those who appreciate it for video; I though I have not yet made. |
 | sent on December 12, 2015 Pros: Speed ??and quiet focusing, excellent sharpness, excellent stability, lightweight, af focusing even in low light. Cons: Little light, lacking the scale of distances, the focus ring does not by limit feedback, slight chromatic aberration. Opinion: C often combined with extension tubes of 13 or 21 mm (RR x0,44 and x0.53 respectively), obtaining excellent risultati.rnCiò you do not like about this is that it is very dim, it does not have the scale of distances (as all stm) and the ring nut of the focus does not have a feedback hardening at the end of the race. Objectively with this objective it is more difficult to manually fire. Chromatic aberration is quite marked but can be corrected quite well in post produzione.rnSe sell it will only be for a brighter lens zoom, sacrificing versatility for a focal f / 2.8 constant. |
 | sent on November 27, 2015 Pros: focus fast Cons: variable aperture, focus ring without limit, at 18 vignetting, sharpness Opinion: Add some money and take a 24-105 f / 4 used, if you want a lens to all the temptation will be strong but soon you will find that is not up. Ok for the video AF but MF is almost unusable with the ring built that way. The variable diaphragm is another flaw if you make videos. A sticker 18 and distorts (even if you correct easily and quickly post with lightroom) and sharpness of course is not the best. I think it's fine for those who have needs too high and has already planned to go on a lot with photography (because that is good only on aps-c) |
 | sent on November 15, 2015 Pros: Range of focal lengths, Price Cons: Image quality similar to lenses bridge point and shoot Opinion: I got to try it for a whole day grafted 7d ... in light conditions is just decent ... perfect if you encounter a backlight turn around the other side ... the IQ will fall below the level of any smartphone, in a entire session in the church during a baptism the light coming from behind windows of people who sent down the quality conspicuously ... I repeat, situations, and not of direct or backlit with sun in campo.rnUn advice? But absolutely do not buy another preferitegli |
 | sent on August 11, 2015 Pros: Price / quality / range of focal lengths Cons: If you buy it as a handyman he does not have, if you buy it to take pictures during a seance by candlelight you wrong buying ... Opinion: Honestly it seems excessive and harsh talk of brightness tiny, little crisp, bottom of the bottle, plasticaccia, scale and against stairs .. (for those who want proof I can send my photos) For 400 € this is a Mr. aim to take on holiday and around without worries, it covers a focal range of important and produces pictures from all over, who cares if it's plastic or non-tropical conditions, is like buying a smart and expect me to go to 300 km / h, if you want to go and I have to spend 300 different digits. I am a happy owner of the Canon 70D and the lens that I always mounted when I need it "much light" use the canon 35mm f.2 and are in place. On my 70D I also tried the Canon 17-55 f2.8 and tele 70-200 f4 unregulated always canon, sincerely for photos outdoors to note important differences have to call Mr. Zeiss, is an honest and objective fact-rounder, if you are not professional photographers go quiet of 18-135 STM that will not disappoint. |
 | sent on June 29, 2015 Pros: Versatility, good sharpness, good construction, focus fast and quiet Cons: Low light (like all the rest of the lenses handyman) Opinion: I sold the STM 18-55 to pass this 18-135, I have not regretted it at all, giving you that more focus to capture some details that do not you take it to 55mm, obviously is a goal to use the daytime and outdoors, great for trips and excursions. Indoors it's almost impossible to shoot without flash, but it is not a problem, however, because we know that with this type of lens you have to accept this compromise. |
 | sent on May 28, 2015 Pros: Comfort Cons: Brightness tiny, little sharpness. Opinion: As long as I was outdoor so light it seemed good, then I went indoors and began the tragedy, not a single photo of the shot I liked, all too noisy because of the little lens brightness and sharpness almost absent. The 18-55 in my opinion has a better yield. Han tried to create a remarkable all-rounder and instead have managed only to turn many fine reflex in the bridge. It sold after two weeks. |
 | sent on November 10, 2014 Pros: Versatility, price, image quality, ergonomics, good autofocus, very good stabilizer. Great for video, though personally I do not care. Cons: A little 'less sharp at maximum focal length, nothing incorrigible. Does not have the scale of focus. Opinion: I was given recently and, as I expected, meets every requirement of my "slow-rounder." The picture quality is great, very high for the price - just a little flaw 'of sharpness after the 120mm, but nothing incorrigible. The zoom ring is nice and flows well, and the lens has an overall excellent ergonomics and a nice touch and feel, although it is still plastic. I can not recommend it as a lens for every day. |
 | sent on October 19, 2014 Pros: Versatility and overall quality. Monstrously valid in the video. Cons: Decrease of sharpness at maximum focal, though not excessive. Opinion: Taken goal in kit with the 70D to its ambitions and video for its convenient zoom range, especially when you travel. Who knows what it takes this view look. The yield on the photos is without praise and without shame, but if you learn to know and use it, it involves more than decent. Besides, a lens with a zoom range that I knew that I could not expect performance to scream. The auto focus is swift and silent in good light, a little less in low light, much like the USM, but the use is in live view that shows even faster and more precise. Goal that I recommend to those who do not point to the hair split into four, but seek perspective solid, despite its plasticky, versatile and still good quality. |
 | sent on August 19, 2014 Pros: Fast in focus. Good sharpness if not used at full aperture. Well built considering the price. Focal length range for an excellent all-round use. Very useful zoom lock when storing it in the bag. Good stabilization. Cons: Hood not included. It lacks the scale of focus and depth of field. Extensive use of plastic (but perhaps not a fault). At shorter focal distorts a bit '. Opinion: Great lens to do everything, even for the video. The focal range makes it suitable both in landscape and in portrait. The focus with stepping motor (STM) is fast and whisper-quiet. Used on an EOS 700D allows, working in Live View, to chase the subject automatically, keeping it in focus even as it moves without having to hold the button scatto.rnLa sharpness, especially when not using it wide open, it is very buona.rnIn wide angle position shows some distortion, which can however be corrected through 5 programs like Lightroom, Photoshop Camera Raw CC, PT Lens or Digital Photo Professional in the same Canon.rnE 'a lens that I leave often mounted on the SLR, and that I always choose when I want to carry around a single ottica.rnIn summary, a great purchase for any SLR Canon APS-C format. |
 | sent on August 12, 2014 Pros: Fast AF, good sharpness and very quiet Cons: with low light 'is not the best and loses sharpness after 120 mm Opinion: A great lens stabilized and quiet, was born to the video. If he had opened a 2.8 or 3.5 would be fixed meraviglioso.Questo lens is to make all the classic good level. |
 | sent on July 02, 2014 Pros: Accurate and silent autofocus fast, sharpness, excellent stabilization Cons: I have not noticed Opinion: I took this objective, on the advice of the forum, for use in exhibitions, especially cosplay, I have to say that it is really a great all-rounder. The autofocus is fast and does not emit any noise, even the stabilization is very good. In my opinion it is worth every euro spent. (Paid € 350 on Amazon). I recommend it to everyone who owns a aps-c and looking for a handyman. |
 | sent on November 16, 2013 Pros: AF, handyman, stabilized, virtually free of chromatic aberration Cons: Distortion at 18mm Opinion: A few months ago necessitavo of perspective and I do everything I was oriented on this, I must say that I was impressed right away. I do not know if I got lucky but the model I own does not see chromatic aberration, the use with a 600D and it gives me great satisfaction. The new engine STM works very well in my opinion, is accurate, quiet and pretty fast. It should be in direct competition with the Sigma 17-70 F2.8 but having no way to try them I do not sbilancerei. As optical recommend it to anyone looking for a great all do. |
user20639 | sent on February 16, 2013 Pros: With the 650D distorts very little and I do not see vignettatura.Ottimo against the light, a few reflections. Clear, versatile, lightweight and very practical. Fair macro for what it costs, accurate fire. Cons: If we talk about the category in which it is inserted this goal, I do not see any problems, but goes beyond it as a possibility. I would have felt safer for guards close to the lens, even if the lens is solid. It is not as fast as his brother, but it is much better for video. Opinion: In extreme conditions, I had no problem with fire. In other situations, it is na wonder. According to me it raises the standards of the category and makes it a little less than other higher. For a novice person the chance to do almost everything, so those who use it can easily find its way, then in a photograph addressing more specific. For those traveling is a big plus, you can use all having very good results. Sharpness has to sell. One Zun Zun is always a compromise, if you want the best is easy, with the objectives fixed. |
 | sent on November 18, 2012 Pros: handyman, light Cons: does not have a minimum of sharpness, from 90 onwards loses quality exponentially, cartoon, autofocus Opinion: It 'was my first goal, I have regretted many times not having chosen the classic combined 18-55 55-250. It is difficult to be satisfied after one shot if you do not work in PP to improve sharpness and contrast. Always soft, I would call it more of a 20-80. Besides these focal lengths is very limited. rnNon wait to replace it. |
| sent on August 07, 2012 Pros: light-great for travel-great for video autofocus accurately and reliably in live view- Cons: distorts to 18 mm. lack of motor usm. Opinion: i have to some day the judgment is therefore quite partial. I can say that in the video footage does very bene.per give a full review in the next post. just come back from South Africa where I testarlo.interessante will be whether there have been significant changes from the previous version beyond the STM |
