An all-around lens ideal for creative photography and movies, Canon's EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM adds cutting-edge technology to an extremely flexible zoom range. Delivering remarkable performance for everyday capture, it's equipped with Canon's new NANO USM technology, featuring high-speed and near-silent AF. What's more, it's also compatible with Canon's new Power Zoom Adapter PZ-E1 for more natural zooming during movie capture. For landscapes, portraits, sports videos and everything in between, the EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM provides great versatility with its magnificent optics, comprehensive zoom range and premium design. It's an impressive complement to the EOS 80D camera, or any EOS camera with an APS-C size sensor.
Equipped with new NANO USM technology combining Ring USM and STM for smooth and near-silent video and high-speed AF for still capture.
Fast and incredibly quiet, the EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM's new NANO USM AF system not only delivers high speed AF, but also makes quiet, fast and smooth AF transitions that can be ideal for movie recording. Combining ring USM and STM (lead-screw type) features, the diminutive chip-shaped ultrasonic motor is engineered to help deliver high-speed, smooth, precise and near-silent operation, plus full time manual focus (when using one-shot AF).
Improved driving speed of the focusing lens up to 4.3x (Tele) and 2.5x (Wide) for faster autofocus.
Thanks to its new NANO USM motor, the Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM focuses incredibly fast - a clear advantage for action photography and for working on the fly. Compared to the previous model, it focuses approximately 4.3 times* faster at the telephoto end, and 2.5 times faster at the wide end when using the viewfinder, for a noticeable speed advantage that can help ensure a stellar photo.
Compatible with new Power Zoom Adapter PZ-E1, providing electrical zooming that helps deliver more natural zooming while shooting video.
The EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM is compatible with Canon's new Power Zoom Adapter PZ-E1 for electronically controlled zooming. This convenient accessory works with the lens to enhance an EOS camera's video capabilities by providing a smooth and near-silent powered zooming function that's an ideal complement to the lens's speedy AF. The PZ-E1 has adjustable zoom speeds, an integrated locking mechanism, offers remote controlled zooming and is designed to integrate seamlessly with the EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM for streamlined operability.
Image Stabilizer effect at up to 4 stops of shake correction helps capture sharp images.
Thanks to a newly enhanced Image Stabilizer system that features a more rigid mechanical structure and the incorporation of faster algorithms, the EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM's Image Stabilizer effect has been improved from 3.5 stops to 4 stops for better performance in even more challenging situations. Whether shooting in low light or any time a slow shutter speed is necessary, the EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM's Image Stabilizer helps deliver stable, sharp results.
