I was surprised that they don't include it anymore with their budget cameras - I just got a 250d which came with a f/4-5.6 18-55mm IS STM instead. Its smaller at the expense of half a stop at the wide end but it retracts completely at 18mm rather than 35mm on the old lens which is preferable for shooting video.
Yes, it is and the price range goes from 45 to max. 125 USD on the used market. They don't sell it anymore in camera stores, so that should be the correct price on the used market. Cheers!
What are your thoughts on the Canon 18-55mm IS STM lens?
Ah, yes, the Canon 100D (the smallest DSLR) + 18-55mm and 55-250mm are great for travelling, I agree!

Yes, odd move from Canon. They probably want to make the Canon 250D smaller (more appealing), nowadays, in the mirrorless era.
I own the version II and I'm surprised how sharp it is in the center at certain focal distances. Not a bad kit lens at all.
Ideed, very good results in the center. 👍
Thank you so much for this and you are right brilliant review
Glad it was helpful and I appreciate your kind comment!
The kitlens of Canon are very underestimated.
Is canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens suitable for EOS-700D body?
And what's the price range?
TIA

I just found this old thing. Was a gift back in probably 2013. I wanted to know if it is any good.
Im suprised it seems to be
Yes, the quiet and fast focusing motor and image stabilization make it a surprisingly good kit lens.
55-250 ? Multumesc.
Cand o sa fac rost de unul, o sa-i fac review.
