Canon RF-S 18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM

Start your EOS R APS-C mirrorless journey with a lens that covers all your photo and video needs. The RF-S 18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM is light and compact, offering a 4-stop optical Image Stabilizer plus a useful 18-45mm1 zoom range for great results every day.

  • The perfect starter lens for exploration

    Capture life in all its glory with a compact APS-C zoom for the EOS R series that packs in a 29-72mm (35mm equiv.) zoom range. It’s ideal for travel, family or even vlogging and can be easily stowed away in your kit bag.

  • Sharp, stable handheld images and video

    Never worry about having to use flash when you have 4-stops of image stabilisation to hand. For sure and steady shots this lens has you covered, with even more compensation on offer when used with compatible cameras.

  • Smooth, quiet focus with creative control

    An STM motor allows smooth, silent and accurate focusing while a seven blade, circular f/4.5-6.3 aperture is perfect for creating artistic out of focus highlights or 'bokeh'.

  • Experiment with manual focusing

    Go manual and get close with a higher magnification in MF mode. It’s the perfect solution for capturing subjects in glorious detail and allows you get as close as to 15cm with a 0.25x magnification.

  • Lightweight, compact – perfect for every day

    The combined weight of the RF-S 18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM and an EOS R APS-C mirrorless camera offers a significant weight savings compared to a DSLR equivalent. Less weight means you can use for longer – and never miss a moment.
