- Key Specs
- Lens Mount Compatibility: Canon EF-S
- Lens Type: Standard Zoom
- Minimum Focal Length: 18 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
- Maximum Focal Length: 55 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
- Maximum Aperture: f/5.6 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)

Q: would this lens work good for weddings and in low light places like churches and firehalls?
A: Depends on how you are shooting, if you are doing handheld, there is a possibility of blurred images in the low light places. The lens is not capable of a very large aperture, meaning you will have to use a slower shutter speed that risks blurring your images. This could also mean using a higher ISO which will create noise in your pictures. If the wedding is outside with great lighting, I don't see why it would not work. Otherwise, if inside, make sure there is good lighting and test it out in the place before actually shooting for an event.
A: This is a standard lens for a Canon EOS camera. It should fit any model.

A: No. 6D Mark II is a full-frame camera. This lens fits APC-S cameras.
Q: Does the lens have Image Stabilization ?
A: undefined
Q: I have this same lens that came with my t3i. Is there any improvement with this more recent lens?
A: I upgraded from a Rebel T1i to a Rebel T7. The T1i finally gave way after 10 years. Both cameras had this lens as the standard accessory. However, I was able to use my old lens with the new camera to compare. I noticed quite a bit of an improvement in the auto focus. I can't speak what would change between the T3 and T7 but I would recommend reviewing the specs to see what has changed.
