Canon EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Standard Zoom Lens for Canon DSLR Cameras
Description:
Compact, slight weight and a wide magnification range - this standard zoom lens features a wide focal length range from normal to telephoto equivalent to 29-320mm in the 35mm format. It features an Optical Image Stabilizer for up to 4-stops of effective correction even at full zoom. Since Canon's optical image stabilization system is in the lens, not in the camera, you can see the stabilized, steadier images through the viewfinder. And the circular aperture can give beautiful background blur effects. This new wide zoom ratio EF-S lens delivers excellent high-speed performance at an affordable price.

Canon EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Standard Zoom Lens: Recommended by dpreview.comThe EF-S 18-200mm F3.5-5.6 IS is a lens which many Canon users have been waiting for with great anticipation, as an ideal 'all-in-one' lens for travel and 'walkaround' use. In the flesh it behaves much as we'd expect from such an ambitious design, as an 11x zoom range will always necessitate some fairly major optical compromises. Wideangle performance is distinctly mediocre due to a combination of barrel distortion, chromatic aberration, and softness at wide apertures; and while the lens is respectably sharp at longer focal lengths, this is tempered by pincushion distortion around 50mm and chromatic aberration at 200mm. However Canon has to be given some credit for providing users with free software which can compensate for those lens aberrations in RAW conversion, although it can't of course cure underlying sharpness issues.

This lens is really sharp, so much so that I can blow up a selected portion of a photo in Photoshop and it's still pretty sharp. This effectively comes close to giving me the equivalent of a 600 mm telephoto (in 35 mm film) in a walk-around lens.
Unfortunately, the lens vignettes (i.e. the corners of the photos are dark relative to the center of the photo). The vignetting is most pronounced in the longer telephoto range. It is especially noticeable with a background that's uniform in color and lighting, such as a blue or overcast sky. Further, the darkening is more pronounced in the upper left corner compared to the upper right. I can correct most of the vignetting in Photoshop, but that program does not deal so easily with the differential darkening between the corners, thus some darkening remains. (Advanced Photoshop techniques should be able to deal with that, but so far I have not expended the necessary effort). Because photos I shoot tend to be more varied in color, lighting, and with more detail in the lower corners, the vignetting is not so noticeable there; thus I have no comment at this time re the behavior in those corners.
The lens also has a very heavy front element. When the lens is on the camera,and that combination is on the strap around my neck, this tends to keep pulling the combination down and then the weight further pulls the lens out into the fully extended telephoto position. Rather inconvenient!
But for these problems, I have would given this lens a 5 star rating; instead I gave it a 3.
Update: The lens is incredibly sharp. I took this lens as my only lens on a recent Mediterranean cruise. While docked in Pireas (Athens) I took a rock-steady, hand-held photo of a distant cruise ship at the 200mm setting -- like a 330mm shot for an old 35mm film guy like me. The cruise ship was still kinda small, so I cropped the photo in Photoshop to what's the equivalent of about a 1000mm shot (for 35mm film) and it's still incredibly sharp! Imagine having that kind of telephoto magnification in a camera you can carry around your neck! On this same cruise, I took lots of other photos at all the focal lengths offered by this lens, and all are good except when I myself messed them up! Vignetting is still a problem though, and I had to spend a lot of time in Photoshop applying fixes to many of the photos from that same trip: So still a 4 rating.
.
SO - - bottom line: If you want a VERY NICE walk-around lens suitable for just about all but the most demanding professional situations, you CANNOT go wrong with this one. Just for grins, I have uploaded a few of the 400 photos taken on the trip mentioned above (see pg 16 Ooops - they've moved up to Pg 13 & 14 - of the customer images) - - One of them is the obligatory 'I've been to Germany and looked at the Castles' photo of the back view of Neuschwanstein {Disneyland Castle} in Schwangau taken from the bridge between the two mountains. So look at the examples - then YOU decide if this lens will float your boat or not. For me, it's a keeper.

It takes very good pictures, though it has a hard time auto-focusing in very dark areas. I wish they made an affordable version with a constant 2.8 f-stop rather than f/3.5-5.6. At times it is annoying when carrying attached to the new camera (Canon T-7i), that the lens elongates if pointed down and not locked. This is not a big issue for me.
I use the auto-iso on the new camera to compensate for the higher f stops of this lens, which has helped significantly. Later, I finish all photos in Lightroom as needed, especially if very high isos were used. Unfortunately, my son-in-law said I could not use a flash when taking a picture of my new grandson, so I had to buy a low light wide angle zoom (Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM FLD).
Overall, very happy with this canon lens.
Top reviews from other countries
Parlando della qualità dell' obbiettivo, posso dire che è davvero utilissimo, per la sua versatilità, ti permette di andare in giro e non cambiarlo mai. Buono il grandangolo e buono anche il telezoom!
Naturalmente ci sono pro e contro (il mio giudizio non è da professionista ma da fotoamatore):
Montato su CANON EOS D500
Pro:
1) Versatile con ampia gamma di utilizzo dal grandangolo al teleobbiettivo tutto in uno;
2) Zoom automatico velocissimo e silenzioso;
3) Ottimo lo stabilizzatore che in situazioni limite ti permette di fare foto accettabili;
4) Ottimo zoom manuale leggero e preciso;
5) Bloccaggio dello zoom per quando si è in movimento con la fotocamera al collo;
Contro:
1) Rende un pò pesante la reflex(ma dopotutto hai a disposizione anche un tele);
2) Un pò dura la rotazione dello zoom;
3) Col telezoom si creano un minimo di aberrazioni sul contorno delle immagini (non succede con foto da vicino), soprattutto nel contrasto alto B/N (si notano sul colore più chiaro delle sfumature del colore più scuro, questo si nota gia avvicinando leggermente l'immagine a video);
4) Soffre quando c'è poca luce con foto da vicino e suggerisco il paraluce per l'utilizzo del tele.
Nel complesso rapporto qualità/prezzo: 8/10
Consigliato ai fotoamatori in viaggio!
