The kit consists of the camera body, the lens, and various accessories usually necessary to get started. A kit lens can be sold by itself outside of a kit, particularly the ones that are moderately expensive; for instance a kit lens included in a prosumer camera kit is often marketed as an upgrade lens for a consumer camera. In addition ...
Conversely, the same lens can produce different fields of view when mounted on different cameras. For example, a 35 mm lens mounted on a full-frame Canon EOS 5D provides a slightly wide-angle view, while the same lens mounted on an APS-C Canon EOS 400D provides a "normal" or slightly telephoto view.
The Canon EF-S 18–55mm lens f / 3.5–5.6 is a Canon-produced wide-angle to mid telephoto zoom lens for digital single-lens reflex cameras with an EF-S lens mount. The field of view has a 35 mm equivalent focal length of 28.8–88mm, and it is a standard kit lens on Canon's consumer APS-C DSLRs.
It is slower and has lower image and build quality compared to the EF-S 17–55mm lens, although it is cheaper and has a longer focal range. [5] The closest lens to the 17–85mm in the standard EF lens range is the EF 28–135mm lens, which has the equivalent range on a full-frame sensor, similar image quality and image stabilization.

All successive Canon Digital SLR cameras with APS-C sensors can mount EF-S lenses. The 10D captured RAW images in the Canon CRW file format, which was retired by Canon, although modern versions of Canon's Digital Photo Professional will read it. When it was released, recommended retail price in the USA was $1,999 (£1,520). [1]
A new version of the lens, the f/3.5–5.6 IS STM, was announced on 8 June 2012, alongside the EOS 650D/Rebel T4i/Kiss X6i.The "STM" stands for "Stepping Motor", a new autofocus technology claimed by Canon "to smoothly and silently focus" and "achieve continuous AF while recording video" when used with the 650D (and presumably future Canon bodies).

It is praised as "one of the best general/multi-purpose lenses available", [1] [2] and ideal for available light photography on a Canon APS-C camera. [3]The fast f / 2.8 aperture, combined with 3-stop image stabilization, makes the 17–55 very useful in low light compared to an unstabilized f / 3.5–5.6 Canon EF-S 18–55mm lens, which is a frequent kit lens, and thus the 17–55 is much ...
