![]() ![]() What we don’t: Aperture drop-off at the telephoto end.Ĭompared to the Canon 18-200mm below, the Sigma 18-250mm f/3.5-6.3 Macro OS is a nice budget all-in-one lens to pair with the Canon SL1. What we like: Light for an all-in-one lens and a great value. We wish the maximum aperture range was better on both lenses, but they are still workable in most conditions (you can add a cheap portrait lens like the Canon 50mm f/1.8 II below to augment your low light needs).Īll-In-One Lenses Sigma 18-250mm f/3.5-6.3 Macro OS ($349) It’s true that you may want to buy prime lenses as your photography skill advance, but this bundle is a nice head start and a great value. For only about $150 more, you’re covering the full focal length range from wide-angle to telephoto. If you’re shooting video with your new Canon SL1 and considering the 18-55mm STM lens above, it makes a lot of sense to bundle it with the 55-250mm STM. What we don’t: Low light performance could be better. What we like: Covers the spectrum of focal lengths with two lenses. It’s also lightweight at just over 7 ounces and comes with image stabilization (IS) technology to help with hand-held photos when natural light is less than optimal.Ĭanon 18-55mm STM and 55-250mm STM ($648) With a focal length equivalent of 29-88mm on a 35mm camera, this lens a bit wide for landscapes and architecture but very useful for people and portrait shots. Accordingly, if video is a priority, this 18-55mm STM lens and the bundle below are nice options to pair with the SL1. The bottom line is that STM are less likely to get in the way of shooting great video, while USM are slightly better for still photography. What we don’t: Plastic build and underperforms in low light.Ĭanon’s STM (Stepping Motor technology) lenses were built specifically with video in mind-they focus more quietly and smoothly than USM lenses. Below we break the best lenses for the Canon EOS Rebel SL1, from the STM kit lenses offered in a bundle with the camera to specific prime and zoom lens for wide-angle, portrait, and telephoto photography.Ĭanon Rebel SL1 Kit Lenses Canon 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 STM ($499 for the kit) ![]() However, for those who want big image quality without the bulk, the 18-megapixel Canon SL1 gives mirrorless cameras a serious run for their money. At just 14.4 ounces you get much of the performance of the popular Rebel series of DSLRs without weighty features like a flip-out screen. The Canon Rebel SL1 is one of the smallest and lightest DSLRs ever made. ![]()
