I had long wished to purchase the Canon 10-22mm wide angle lens, but had hesitated due to its price. When the 10-18mm was introduced at less than half the price, I was curious and when lens tests showed it to be of comparable image quality, my interest was piqued. Yes, the 10-18mm has a smaller aperture, but the addition of image stabilization, which the 10-22 does not have, should be more than enough compensation. The reduced zoom range may result in somewhat more frequent lens changes, but for $350 savings, I can live with that. The metal lens mount of the 10-22 is surely stronger and more rugged, but the 10-18 is so lightweight and compact that I suspect the plastic mount is more than adequate, particularly for amateur use. The one area of optical performance where tests show the 10-18 to be at a disadvantage is light falloff (vignetting) at corners and edges at large apertures. I reasoned that in practice, I will use the lens mostly outdoors at an aperture of f8 or more where the performance of the two lenses is reported as similar.
On initial examination, the lens feels of higher quality than Canon's "kit" lenses, as befits its higher price. Specifically, the zoom and focus adjustments are much smoother and there is no looseness in the front element, as there is in the EF-S 18-55, for example. The lens is considerably smaller and lighter weight than the 10-22 and is close in size and weight to the 18-55, albeit with a larger diameter front element. I find that my small sling bag (Case Logic SLRC-205) easily accommodates the addition of the EF-S 10-18 with the hoods mounted on all three lenses (reversed on the EF-S 55-250). The EF-S 10-18 ships with a nice center pinch lens cap which affords easy removal and replacement with the hood in place.
My first opportunity to use the lens was probably a worst case scenario: indoors without flash and wide open at ISO 1600. The results were predictable from the optical tests: strong vigneting at shorter focal lengths and when the "peripheral illumination correction" is applied in DPP, detail at corners and edges is marred by noise. This is not too severe a problem if your exposures are spot on, but it leaves little room for correction. There is modest barrel distortion at the wide end that is easily corrected in DPP. Speaking of DPP, I was pleased to find that lens data for the 10-18mm is now available on the Canon site, since it was not before I ordered the lens, so be sure to update DPP to the current version and then update the lens data in the DLO module. DPP's DLO does an admirable job of correcting CA and sharpness issues and, along with DPP's other lens tools, virtually banishes all lens shortcomings. For me, DPP's lens corrections are reason enough to buy Canon lenses.
Now, having used the lens for about 16 months, I've found that it easily meets my original expectations. The vignetting is its only real shortcoming but is quite manageable and correctable in most situations. Maximum aperture is not an issue since I am usually shooting at f8-f11 to maximize depth of field while avoiding diffraction softness (a function of the APS format, not the lens.) "Focus by wire" is somewhat less easy to use than a mechanical link, but its more of a change in paradigm than a handicap. The lack of zoom range overlap with my "kit" lens is occasionally inconvenient, but not $350 worth. When using a polarizer (Hoya HRT), the corners of the image will be clipped at focal lengths less than about 12mm, but this is eliminated when distortion correction is applied in DPP, even at 10mm. A polarizer is of limited value at short focal lengths anyway due to the wide variation in sky luminance. As noted above, it is quite sharp when DPP's DLO corrections are applied. Its small size and light weight assure that I have it with me, in fact, I probably carry it mounted more than any other lens. In summary, I'm pleased with the EFS-10-18mm lens and thrilled with the savings in cost and bulk as compared to the 10-22mm, not to mention the benefit of IS. I highly recommend this lens!
With 5 successful photo shoots under my belt, this lens has not only exceeded my expectations but has also garnered rave reviews from my delighted clients.
The first thing that struck me about this lens is its impressive wide-angle capabilities. Its focal length range of 10-18mm allows me to capture stunning shots that effortlessly encompass the entirety of a room, showcasing its spaciousness and inviting ambiance.
Whether it's a cozy living room or an expansive master bedroom, this lens enables me to capture the essence of the space with remarkable clarity.
The image quality produced by the Canon EF-S 10-18mm lens is nothing short of exceptional. It delivers sharpness and detail from edge to edge, ensuring that every corner of the room is showcased in all its glory.
The lens's advanced optical design, combined with Canon's STM (Stepping Motor) technology, results in quiet and smooth autofocus, allowing me to work discreetly without disturbing the atmosphere during a shoot.
Another aspect worth mentioning is the lens's compact and lightweight design. This makes it incredibly portable and convenient to carry around during shoots, especially when I have to navigate tight spaces or capture shots from various angles.
Its size and weight don't compromise its performance, making it an excellent travel companion for real estate photographers like myself.
The Canon EF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 is STM Lens has undoubtedly elevated the quality of my real estate photography.
The positive feedback I have received from my clients speaks volumes about the impact this lens has had on my work. It has allowed me to capture the true essence of each property, making potential buyers feel as though they are physically present in the space.
In conclusion, if you are a real estate photographer looking to take your craft to the next level, I highly recommend the Canon EF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 is STM Lens.
Its exceptional wide-angle capabilities, outstanding image quality, and effective image stabilization make it a standout choice for capturing the beauty and uniqueness of any property.
Trust me, you won't be disappointed with the results.

I was able to purchase one for $159, new. This was a "killer deal."
Top reviews from other countries
+ Hyper léger
+ Très compact
+ Autofocus excellent que ce soit en photo ou en vidéo, un bon autofocus devient très important quand on se colle à moins d'un mètre du sujet et que l'on doit conserver des sujets nets à quelques mètres ce qui est le cas si l'on veut remplir le cadre en dessous de 14mm
+ IS très utile en intérieur pour compenser la faible ouverture
+ Qualité d'image très correcte vu les focales et le range
+ Un complément idéal aux 18-55 et 55-250 qui sont elles aussi de bonnes optiques qui doivent participer au succès commercial.
+ Pas de réel concurrent que ce soit chez Canon ou ailleurs
+ Jusqu'à 14mm on a des angles de champ larges classiques, en dessous plus on s'approche des 10mm on vire vers le psychédélique avec des perspectives dilatées à l'extrême
- Ouvertures faibles, mais le /4 /5,6 est de rigueur dans cette gamme de prix
- Les qualités optiques ne sont pas sans défauts, mais ses concurrents non plus, quant aux focales fixes et zooms pro. les prix deviennent stratosphériques
- Sous les 14mm composer une bonne image devient sportif
Bref une bonne optique à un prix étonnant pour découvrir les joies et les peines du super grand angle.
