- Key Specs
- Lens Mount Compatibility: Canon RF
- 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: 45 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/4.5 (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.)

As part of our new RF-S lens line, the RF-S18–45mm F4.5–6.3 IS STM gives you the flexibility you desire without taking up your whole camera bag. This lens was designed with smaller APS-C sensors in mind, and when attached to a full frame EOS R camera, automatically enables the 1.6x crop mode. It offers 100% x 100% Dual Pixel CMOS AF coverage for APS-C sensors, and 80% x 80% Dual Pixel CMOS AF coverage for Full Frame sensors (in crop mode). The small size of the RF-S18–45mm F4.5–6.3 IS STM and clever lens retraction mechanism lets it fit just about anywhere, making it a great lens to bring with you on a walk or wherever the day takes you. The lead screw-type stepping motor (STM) helps ensure smooth autofocus and quiet operation, letting you capture videos with great audio and minimal background noise so you won't distract your subject in a quiet photo environment. Optical Image Stabilization provides up to 4 stops of correction, and up to 6 stops with Coordinated IS. This advanced image stabilization can result in sharper photos with minimal blur, even in low light situations. When you add all of this together, you get a wonderful, lightweight, and versatile lens that is designed to fit into your life.

Q: will this fit my T2i Cannon camera?
A: No it will not. This lens is only compatible with RF mount cameras (EOS R series cameras- mirrorless). The Canon Rebel T2i is an EF/EF-S mount camera. I would recommend that you upgrade to an EOS R series camera and with the help of the mount adapter EF-EOS R you can use all your EF/EF-S lenses on your new EOS R series camera in addition to all the previous and future RF/RF-S lenses that come out.

I wish I could give a review but its been 24 days after the lens was paid for and it still hasnt come in. Two events have come and gone that it was to be used for. We have to call to check progress instead of being contacted by them. They were nice enough to extend the automatic cancelation date so we can wait longer.

Maybe worth it as a kit
Grossly overpriced unless it comes with the camera, and even then its too expensive. Subpar image quality, high f stop, and max 45mm make this a poor choice. Unless you can get it cheap, just dont get it. Should cost $50 at most.
