I used the R7, 18-150 (and the EF-S 10-18) on my recent trip to Portugal and Sweden. I shot about1600 images, = 56gb. I think the 18-150 is a much better kitlens than what I expected:

  • Surprisingly sharp in all of the range including at 150.
  • Only a handful images were oof in good conditions, a few in lowlight for sure when I was pushing it indoors, but fast silent AF.
  • Light with a huge range
  • IS in the body makes for great pretty sharp images indoor at churches etc, outdoor at night at say down to 1/15th of a second and ISO 1600.
  • I wish it was 24mm FF equivalent (= 15mm crop) at the wide end, the 10-18 takes over then but it is annoying to change all the time in city landscapes

Appreciate this, very helpful - especially since I plan to use it primarily for travel, for when carrying heavier lens sometimes reduce the joy of exploring streets, food, culture.
