Lead Screw-type STM.

When it comes to recording video, you want to be sure you capture all the subtle sounds of what you're recording. Thanks to its lead screw-type stepping motor (STM), the EF-S 18–55mm f/4–5.6 IS STM focuses smoothly and near-silently.

Image Stabilization at up to 4* Stops of Shake Correction.

For consistently sharp results, the EF-S 18–55mm f/4–5.6 IS STM features an improved Image Stabilizer system that provides enhanced shake reduction for up to 4 stops* of shutter speeds. This means more reliable handheld performance and clearer detail in low-light situations, without having to increase the ISO or decrease the shutter speed. Because of its enhanced stabilization, the EF-S 18–55mm f/4–5.6 IS STM can also help minimize the need for a tripod.

Stylish Design.

The innovative design of the EF-S 18–55mm f/4–5.6 IS STM combines style and usability.

The smooth-turning focus and zoom rings were designed for ease of use and accurate movement. A platinum ring behind the zoom ring adds a touch of sophistication, and the EF-S 18–55mm f/4–5.6 IS STM's non-retracting design combined with its lightweight body makes it easy to carry with you wherever you go.
