Red Rose close up with 18-55mm IS II lens
1

I was quite surprised as to how close I can get to my subject with this lens!!! I do not believe it is a macro lens, but I am liking this 'Kit' lens!!! I ended up getting this lens with my T3i combo.... I bought another Tamron lens which I use with that camera... However, I put this lens on my older Rebel 300D, and it makes a nice pair together.... What do you think of this lens yourself???

Yes, it's very good.  I have the STM version, which I usually use in preference to my 60 mm macro lens, because it has IS.
