Canon EF 2562A014BA 28-135mm
Its built-in Image Stabilizer and ring-type USM provide sharp, silent autofocus with full-time manual override across a versatile 28-135mm range. The lens weighs just 18.9 ounces and focuses as close as 20 inches, making it a lightweight, discreet option for handheld shooting in dim museums or events. This lens suits budget-conscious photographers seeking a single, do-it-all stabilized zoom for travel and everyday documentation, rather than those needing wide apertures for portraiture.
