Lead Screw-type STM.
When it comes to recording video, you want to be sure you capture all the subtle sounds of what you’re recording. Thanks to its lead screw-type stepping motor (STM), the EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM focuses smoothly and near-silently. There's virtually no mechanical noise from the lens to distract from your movie - just the dialogue, music or other important sounds you want to capture.

Image Stabilization at up to 4* Stops of Shake Correction.
For consistently sharp results, the EF-S 18-55mm f/4–5.6 IS STM features an improved Image Stabilizer system that provides enhanced shake reduction for up to 4 stops* of shutter speeds. This means more reliable handheld performance and clearer detail in low-light situations, without having to increase the ISO or decrease the shutter speed. Because of its enhanced stabilization, the EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM can also help minimize the need for a tripod.

Stylish Design
The innovative design of the EF-S 18–55mm f/4–5.6 IS STM combines style and usability. The exterior of the lens is textured with a black leather coating that allows for a precise grip that feels comfortable in your hand. The smooth-turning focus and zoom rings were designed for ease of use and accurate movement. A platinum ring behind the zoom ring adds a touch of sophistication, and the EF-S 18–55mm f/4–5.6 IS STM’s non-retracting design combined with its lightweight body makes it easy to carry with you wherever you go.
