- The Canon EF-S 10-18mm IS STM is one of the smallest and cheapest super wide angle zoom lenses for any APS-C camera system. It is the lens I have on my Canon 500d / t2i which I still use to this day to film myself when I am out in the streets doing spontaneous photoshoots with strangers. Now after 800 of those Videos it was time fo a thorough review. As always my reviews are full of real world photographs and insights from somebody that actually used the gear a lot before I talk about it. Let's dive in into what images you can create with it and how it turned out compared to the other premium lenses I use on my bigger Full Frame Cameras - let's go!

And this ladies and gentlemen, is the reason why running out to buy super expensive gear is NOT going to make you a great photographer overnight. Its all about who is holding the camera and how much passion and work you've put into it.
Man this video is like from another world🙏
The calm way u speak with and those beautiful shots makes me relax i swear 😂❤️❤️
Keep it up ❤️
Thank you so much for this! This was very helpful for me with my new lens! I absolutely LOVE your outlook with photography! The emotional aspect and how YOU SEE IT! So many are caught up in the technical aspect of it. It’s all about what YOU Love ❤️ and how you view your photos! 💕
A great review. I love the way you show so many photos to give people a feel of what the lens can do.
Thank you Kerry!
Beautiful images, as always. I love your style and your way of thinking. You sure stretched every ounce of dynamic range out of that old Canon. I'm surprised at the bright cloud detail in some of those images.
Great shots as usual, thanks. This is one of those "absolutely impossible to beat for the money" lenses. Good for fighting the 4k crop on the EOS R as well (can be hacked to fit a 5D IV or SpeedBooster for the GH5 as well)
If I don't find a deal on the 16-35mm f/4 IS, maybe I will just get one for the EOS R crop mode, because why the hell not, it is almost given away for its abilities.
great video my brother, I almost sold my lens, then I decided to use it on my lumix s5 with the sigma M21 and watching your video I'm so excited to use this lens, congratulations on the great work. God bless you .
For the price and weight its an amazing lens :)
Finally I found what I've been looking for. Thank you for the great review, and I've learnt something new today.. Emotion, which I could really feel in every photo you take. Im your new subscriber.
Very nice shots, I just received my 10-18 . The best camera is the one you have with you.
Sold American. I just bought an SL2, refresh from T3i, and I'm still using the old kit lenses. I knew I needed new glass for my upcoming trip to Switzerland and Germany, and seeing your landscapes, real estate, and architecture shots sold me.
Lovely little camera, isn't it? :)
I bought my Canon 200D (SL2 for Americans :p) in January this year, and I absolutely love it!
If you use one of the Canon "Pancake"-lenses (I use the 24mm f/2.8 STM) on it, it weighs absolutely nothing!
Very easy to hold. :)
Thank you so much for the review! So helpful. Definitely is all about capturing the emotion.
THANK YOU FOR AN EXCELLENT EXPLORATION OF THE POWER OF THIS LENS. BEAUTIFUL VIDEO😍💟👏
This video is very helpful for me to purchase this lens, your comments are very practical. Do n’t pay too much attention to the parameters, pay attention to the practical use that the lens can bring. Hope to see more about the application of this lens in shooting skills, thank you !
Nice. Beautiful images. I just bought this lens used. Can't wait to use it on my Sony A7ii and A6000.
😮 oh i would love to go to Tuscany especially that hotel you were at looks so beautiful!!!!❤
He is the most genuine photographer in TH-cam leaving aside all top class Camera reviewers

Nice and humble explanation.... Love from india ❣️
Impressive. Great hommage. Big thanks!
Thank you for explaining and advocating for the emotional approach to photography. I feel many get lost in the technicalities of an image and lose the emotion of the moment. Great video!

Definitely the most helpful review on youtube for me. Very clearly. Thumps up👍🏼

You are an amazing person . Its there in your dialogues .

Wow, thank you very much! Take a look at my other videos and let me know what you think :)
Danke meneer. Thanks for the knowledges. Saya banyak belajar dari video ini. Respect from Indonesia !
WoW so cool. Just bought one of these and did`nt know what to do with it. (29.09.2019)
Your photos look so artistic. Color is all balanced. Gives the visual feeling of being in the photo.
Do you sell your presets for Lightroom and Premium Pro?
I have a Video Workshop which teaches you how I edit and how can do that too in under 20 seconds in Lightroom:

Well, today I was about to buy me this lens as my first Ultra-Wide angle lens, but I hesitated. I wanted to do some more research first.
After looking at multiple reviews on TH-cam, THIS video with the sample images finally convinced me to go ahead and buy it :)
Same here. I'm struggling a few weeks thinking of which lens I should buy to replace my kit lens. Now it is clear to me that 10-18mm is a good choice for me.
@@senghongleng9448 I already have the lens by now, and I can say that it's really awesome :)
Weight is only 240gram, so it's very lightweight. The Image Stabilizer is very convenient as well ;)
Also, because it's an actual Canon-lens, I can say that the focussing combined with my Canon EOS 200D is very fast and quiet.
The Dual-Pixel Autofocus has no issues with this lens and works equally fast. :)
Money well spent!
@@o0L4nc3r0o I feel even more confident to get this lens. Will buy it today ;)
best of the best review and great photos... amazing
Thank you very much for your feedback, that is very kind of you. Take a look at my channel, you will find many reviews like this one :)
that's video was very helpful , thanks for sharing :D
13:42 just wondering, why point the flash to the back?
Super informative video man! I will buy this lens for my Canon t7i! Thank you for sharing this!
You will have a great time with it :)
@ ❤️
Final video to convince me to buy this used for 150 usd...salute and cheers
Thanks buddy for the wonderful explanation.. I use canon 90D. And I'm a beginner. I also have canon 550D. Which I was thinking to sell it or give it away. After watching your video. I changed my mind. Thankyou so much.
Fantastic..!!
Great artistic insight!
Great Video, Very Informative . Thank You
Really great review but for reason I was expecting that lion on that jacket of yours to jump up and bite me LOL
Good review. Thanks 👍
Awesome photography ❤
I"ve also this lense.
Thank you very much!
Hi Dirksón. Do you do multiple exposures in indoor real estate photos? Thanks, great vid!
No I never do multiple exposures. Sometimes I use flash but always on camera pointing to a wall to the side or the ceiling.
Hi. I a beginner about lenses and I am searching for wide angle lens. I'm torn (kind of) between the canon 10-18 mm lens with image stabilization but with f/4.5 and 10-22 mm lens but without image stabilization with f/3.5. I dont know if you are familiar of the two lenses but in your opinion, which lens should be better? Thank youu
The 10-18mm is newer cheaper and has IS, I would go for the 10-18 STM. I got it now for many years and took many images with it, but I also did around 978 Videos on this channel filming my photoshoots with that one lens. I know people who have the 10-22, but I would go for the 10-18. Anyway, both lenses will give you great super wide images, so you are in a win win situation ;)
This is great thank you
thank u !!
Beautiful images ❤️
Thank you very much! Take a look at my other videos, I think you will like it :)
Thank you for this video! What is the gear you use in the intro/ talking at home please? The camera and the lens ?
I used the 6D or 6D II to film me talking probably with the 50mm f1.8 lens.
Thanks for the video. What is your opinion on the tamron 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5 di ii?
I never tried it. I have a Tamron 24-70 f2.8 VC, which for me is not a great lens and I rarely used it in the last years. So I probably would not choose Tamron again.
Great video, really helpful .
Just have a quick question though, do you recommended this lens for aps crop sensor camera like Canon 77D which have 1.6 crop factor ?
Thanks!
Hi Supun, this lens is only for crops sensors, it doesn't work on full frame. Although you can use it on the full frame Eos R and RP as the adapter can use EF and EF-S lenses. But in general it was made for something like a 77D :) And for that price it is one of the best super wides available + great AF + Image stabilization.
@ Thanks Dirkson!
I'm planing to buy this lens and canon 55-250 mm IS STM lens for telephoto.
Thank You for the great video!
If you liked the Video, take a look at my channel, I think you'll like it :)
Thank you for the nice video! I own 10-18 with 70d but i can never get the skies exposed properly, do you use any kind of filter on top of it or HDR?
No, no filter and no HDR. Here you can see how I edit all images in around 5 seconds: www.dirkson-photography.com/lightroom-presets2/
@ Thank you for your reply! I will have a look in to it, and subscribed to your channel! Nice vids and nice music! Danke dir!
I've been researching reasonable lens for inside. Is this lens good for shooting fashion photography inside?
It is a great cheap affordable small lightweight super wide for apse cameras. at this price you can't go wrong and it delivers really great images. For full frame I love the 20mm f2.8 lens, you will also find a review on my channel with many portraits in it. But in general the 10-18mm STM is a hell of a lens for the APSC system.
they are so happy in photos.
Thank you very much for your feedback, that is very kind of you. Take a look at my channel, you will find many reviews like this one :)
hey Dirkson, what camera did you film this video with?
Canon 6D II
Thanks very helpful !
Glad I could help :)
Good review, no intention to photograph people... just regular restaurant vlogs and focus on food
Cani I use for CANON EOSR
Yes you can use it as a super wide angle lens the same way as on apsc cameras with the ef r adapter that comes with the r or rp. But the resolution will be lower than with r or ef lenses which doesn't affect really the image quality or the look.
Do you do any color correction or anything to the pictures?
I use presets which I use in Lightroom - here you find out more about it: www.dirkson-photography.com/lightroom-presets2/
@ I am on a Mac and have FCPX .
Very nice video!
Thank you Panos! Take a look at my other Videos, there are many like this one :)
Can you make a video showing how you edit your photos please?
I have some on my channel, just look for "lightroom" or "edit"
Why dont you make some tutorial like video
I have a Video Workshop which teaches you how I edit and how can do that too in under 20 seconds in Lightroom:
www.dirkson-photography.com/produkt/the-20-second-editing-workflow-by-dirkson/
Nice
Can it be use for night photography..?
It depends - I don't do night photography, so I am not an expert in that. If you want to photograph stars I would go for a wider aperture. If you are on a budget there are some Samyang or Walimex Ultrawide angle lenses with f2.8 apertures. If you want to photograph buildings and stuff then this lens and a tripod will give you great results.
@ thanks a lot for ur help sir😊
Loved your video. Going to order the lens now from Amazon. $199.00 USD.
You'll have a great time with it :)
lucky man
I own this lens. How is this possible ! I agree with those architecture and wide shots but some of your images especially first few portraits images have a super bokeh effect and they don't look like shooting from close distance because there is no distortion effect. Only those large aperture lenses can do it. As far as I know the maximum aperture that this lens can produce is f4.5, how did you shoot it so blurry (bokeh background)? Unless you use post-production. Also I saw the small video display in your main video. The lens you used doesn't seem to be this lens. This is a bit misleading for those want to buy it.
I will take a deep look at it, I did not intend to show images that were shot with another lens. Thank you for noticing, I will take a look at it tonight. Yet, you got many many images here to get an idea of what you can get with an old apsc camera and this lens (or on the r or rp)
Beautiful images, man, but be careful, distort the architecture is a serious ill attribute of your indoor photography. The magic of the wide lens got you and you can't understand that there isn't at least one interior designer that made the plan to renovate a space based on the room's geometry that pictures have. One advice that I can give to you is study more about interior photography, and after a whyle you will not believe how you are mistakenly shooting now. Scuse me and please don't think that I am making myself a smart pants.
Although, thank you for reviewing this cheap lens, on such a cheap camera. My third back-up camera is a 700D, the first back-up is a markIII and the equipment I shoot on is an EOS R. Because we are in 2019. Think about this ;) This movie that I am commenting on is made in 2019, march. Talking about photos with furious noise made with a camera that was lunched in 2013, more than 5 years ago. Meaning 2-3 electronic generations ago... Think about this
Hi Dip Image, thank you for your feedback and thoughts. There is no need for a newer camera, as not the camera is the tool to take images but the photographer. The Eos R, Mark III, 700D or 550D all do the job. It will just be harder for the photographer on older gear and therefor it is more inspirational when it works. Therefor I embrace old and cheap gear to show that you don't need the new and expensive.
Tons of nice pictures, aaaaaaand not a single video sample. I’m throwing a tantrum now and thumbing down
Hope you learned how to edit your own footage by now ;)
This video is 4 times longer than it needs to be
Hi RAj, thank you very much for your positive criticism. It is always great to hear someone to give me tips to improve. Which parts should be left out of the video, so I can learn for the next review ( I am doing a lot of Review Videos now of all my gear - please let me know how I could do it better next time). Greetings from Germany, Dirksón!
Dirksón! Photography he’s a jerk. Great video, thanks for sharing. I just brought this lens and I really just wanted to see pictures of it in action so thanks!
I hate those watermarks
You have the opportunity to write something significant and then all you get to write is this.
I dont care what I get to write or not. Being a loyal observer, I just wanted to highlight the thing I didnt like.
Rather focus on what did you like?
Very misleading review!
How can I help you?
@ Some of your images, especially the first few portrait photos with super bokeh, they do not look like they were taken with this lens. The maximum f number of this lens is only f4.5! Also I saw that you tried to cover the lens you actually used to shoot those portraits.
@ You are cheating and misleading the audience. This is totally unacceptable. How can you say that the photos taken by other lenses are taken by this lens?
You sound really unhappy with yourself, I hope you will find peace within you.
@ I'm unhappy with you because You are lying!
All I see is blurred backgrounds and bad use of tonal contrast sharpening, structure.. Etc.. You get the wow from people that don't know better.. Just saying. Nothing interesting really. Try to come up with some interesting project if you live from photography and TH-cam
Hi Amaro, thank you very much for your feedback! It is always nice to hear some critical thoughts, so it was really nice to read yours. I don't make money with youtube, it is a hobby. My main job is wedding photography, but that has nothing to do with this youtube channel. I just photographed 101 people on one weekend on the streets of Düsseldorf and everybody got all images for free as always. We make a gallery also in Düsseldorf with 101 big printed images and everybody get all their images also for free. I pay for it. That is I think a worthwhile project.
I'd love to hear your feedback on my other videos - you will find over 1250 videos which make this channel the biggest photography channel on youtube so far. Love from Germany, Dirksón!
