5.0 out of 5 stars very handy for indoor family shots and outdoor landscapes.

Using it on a Canon R10.

The wide angle 10mm is very useful for landscapes and interior shots. Really good for shooting inside churches if you are steady handed and can keep it still for 1/2 sec.

That is the only shortcoming to this lens... it's a little bit slow but then it's also small so that's something I knew going in. Indeed this seems to be a common issue with all the lenses that run in the R10 mirrorless and the like.

But the bigger lenses are more expensive and... well... simply much bigger and heavier. When I decided to dump the DSLR for the R10 I understood the compromise.

Overall a great little lens. Camera with this lens, an 18-45 and an 18-150, batteries, charger and passport all fit nicely in a small shoulder bag.

Recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for wide angle shots

Super compact and light, slightly smaller than RF18-45 so I carry both in my bag. I use this kayaking and capturing sunrises and landscape shots on my daily morning paddles so the pics are from about 30-60 mins before sunrise up to sunrise for reference. Very pleased thus far in the outdoor applications it’s been used. It’s a good value for having the wide angle range needed to really capture landscapes and waterscapes in entirety.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exactly what I needed for my R7
Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2024
I normally photograph wildlife but went to Paris for a week and knew I would need something wider angle. This did the trick. There is very little distortion when fully wide, and it really opened up my options when photographing big buildings close up, or interiors. If I had not used this lens, I would not have gotten about half of the shots I ended up with.

Build quality is OK.. doesn't feel particularly strong, but it is very small and very light.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing addition to my Canon
Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2024
When I bought my Canon EOS-R50, I was ignorant about the cropped sensor details. I was thinking along the terms of my old 35mm cameras I used to have 30 or 40 years ago. So I assumed the 18-45 mm lens would be a really nice wide angle. But with the cropping, it's not. I couldn't even get a photo of my basement wall and the work I was doing downstairs in frame. I had to use my iPhone to zoom back out far enough to get a decent shot.

This meant that my 18mm lens was the focal equivalent to about a 29mm lens on my old film 35mm camera. But this one, at 10mm, is like a 16mm lens would've been on my old 35mm film camera. And the difference between the kit lens that came with the camera and this one is amazing.

Not only can I get the wider shots now that I want, but it's just a better lens overall. The results of this at 18mm and the kit lens shooting at 18mm is clear to the naked eye.

Definitely worth the cost for my use.

5.0 out of 5 stars Useful and Enjoyable Lens
Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2024
Very surprised. I took this lens with me to a trade show in Detroit and got some very nice shots. I haven't had time to run the RAWs through Lightroom but just looking at the jpgs and some minor corrections, they look pretty good. I love the flexibility of shooting at 10mm, and yes, there is some lens aberration but my R-10 does a nice job correcting this in RAW and honestly, you're shooting at 10mm and you have to expect some warping. Overall, I am happy with this lens and will find lots of uses for it.
