This lens arrived the day before I left for holidays in Hawaii. I was looking for a lens that would be suitable for all shooting conditions and this was on the mark. Although I took my 250mm and 300mm lenses with me they remained in the hotel room as the 18-135mm, coupled to my Canon EOS 650D (T4i) was all I needed for all shooting situations, from aerial photography over the 'Big Island' to wide angle shots of the USS Arizona memorial in Honolulu. The lens is light and not cumbersome and used with the camera's video mode provide crisp clear HD movie footage. I cannot speak highly enough of this lens and would describe as a 'must have' for amateur or serious photographers alike. 9/10 only because nothing is perfect.
The 18-135mm IS was recently bought as a great 'walkabout' lens for use with my Canon EOS40D on an upcoming trip. It has proved to be a good choice, with crisp,remarkably sharp images, thanks to its inbuilt image stabilization. If only Canon had given this lens the USM feature,it would have that extra bit of speed in focusing that would really make the difference! Definitely a lens that you would buy again and recommend to your mates.
Canon 18-135mm lens are amazing for beginners who just wants a standard lens but also wants a tiny telescopic with it. Easy and light to carry. You can possibly take of anything with these and most likely don't have to keep taking it off your camera body. Better and higher standard than the 18-55mm. 100% Recommended!

I use this lens with my 550D and I just love the results However it does NOT fit my Canon 6D full frame camera so thats a but of a bummer BUT all in all it is way better than the 135m lens I purchased a couple of years ago and this one is an upgrade of that one by Canon which is fantastic for APSC camera users

Working ok. Images sharp from the test photos I’ve taken. Silver ring was missing a little, it’s just a sticker so just took the whole thing off.
