Canon’s newest “L” series lens is its first mid-telephoto macro lens to include Canon’s sophisticated Image Stabilization.

Canon EF S 18 200mm f 3 5 5 6 IS Standard Zoom Lens for Canon DSLR Cameras
Compact, lightweight 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.

5 Stars Amazing!
This lens is the ultimate. I used to have to switch often between my 18-55mm and my 75-300mm lenses, but now with this I have most of both of those ranges. This lens produces such amazing quality. It did cost more than my Canon XSI but it sure improved it too. The image stabilizer is also the best I’ve seen on a lens. If you have the money, I definitely recommend this lens!
5 Stars A great, versatile lens.
Lens works as advertised and is, in my opinion, a great value among Canon lenses. It has become my primary lens. I especially like its relatively compact size for travel.
4 Stars Range, Versatility, and Accuracy
When looking at the Canon EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Standard Zoom Lens you see a lens that does a pretty good job at a lot of things, but is not perfect at any of them. It has a very nice zoom range, its wide angle ability is respectable, and its macro ability is adequate. All in all this lens does it all well and is the ideal first lens for any photographer. Then if you require a more task specific lens you may pursue at a later date.
The AF is fairly fast, but a tad noisy. (it’s not a USM motor, hence the noise) It handles low-light focusing well and the image stabilizer is very good. The lens lock ensures the lens won’t be sliding down as it’s slung over your shoulder provided you remember to lock it.
All in all this is the ideal first lens for anyone. It works very well across the spectrum without any real problems.
5 Stars Range vs. Distortion
Everybody already knows the 18-200 mm range comes in a package with barrel and pincushion distortion. Nevertheless with sophisticated or even free image softwares both distortions may be easily corrected. I think the price we have to pay for the wide range is fair. Construction is also great. I use it in my 30D and 50D and the 1.6 crop factor boosts the telephoto end. Overall is a great lens.
4 Stars Good compromise
I used this lens on a Digital Rebel Xti, and now on a 50D. It’s not perfect, but I feel it’s a good compromise considering the range and aperature it has. I’ve gotten the lens to produce some pretty good detail. There is some variation from wide to telephoto length, and there is some distortion present, as others have noted. I thought the focusing speed and noise level weren’t too bad, but not quite up to levels of higher-end lenses. I have not had any problem with zoom creep so far. I would recommend this lens if you need to travel light or carry one reasonably sized lens. It’s been handy to use when sightseeing and shooting a variety of subject matter.

5 Stars Excellent battery!!
I am using this battery with my Canon PowerShot SD990 IS and it is equal to if not better than the Canon OEM battery which would have cost me $58.
This is a really good value!

5 Stars GENERIC REPLACEMENT BATTERY FOR CANON ELF CAMERAS
I refuse to Pay CANON $46.00 for these batteries! I have purchased 44 canon Elph Cameras so far and never have less than two batteries with me at all times. I paid about $15.00 here and this allows me to have three on hand for the price of one. I have a car charger and the normal charger and never ruin an event by running out of battery to allow for a great shoot…no limits in power available all day!
I also use Amazon to buy the Digital Elf KIT which gives you a genuine CANON battery and the Leather Case and a very nice Metal Neck Strap, for around $48.00. That is a Combination and a price that you cannot beat anywhere! Thanks Amazon, R F Hauser 1400mAh NB-5L / NB5L Replacement Battery for Canon PowerShot SD700 IS, SD790 IS, SD800 IS, SD850 IS, SD870 IS, SD890 IS, SD900, and SD950 IS – Japanese Cells
1 Star Camera show “battery depleted” right after charge.
I was expecting a decent replacement battery for this price (>$14). It says 1400mAh, but it is not even close to the original 1140mAh battery. I’ve charged it several times, but once put in the camera, a few pictures later, camera is flashing the “battery depleted” icon. Will return it!
