It is intended as a replacement for the Canon EF-S 18-135mm F3.5-5.6 IS STM. It is used on a Canon EOS 600D. The camera is compact and lightweight. The build quality is solid and gives a sense of value again. It is intended to cover the short-range and the evenings with the small aperture value. It does so with flying colors. Both the aperture values to 11 (private area) and the macro range, with its impressive 16 cm totally convincing. Autofocus is fast and accurate. The picture quality is colorful, natural and extremely good for this price range. The STM technique I could not test, because the Canon EOS 600D does not support this technology. The fixed focal length is a disadvantage, which would be even better as well, an even lower aperture value.
