At a Glance

Designed for APS-C on Canon EF, this superzoom turns 18-200 mm into a full-frame equivalent of 29-320 mm. The 11.1x zoom range covers wide-angle to telephoto in one lens, and at 398 g it stays compact. Its 1:3.7 magnification allows close-ups. It suits travel and everyday shooting, though the aperture narrows to f/6.3 at the long end.
