Canon EF-M 55-200mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM Lens (Black)

The Canon 9517B002 is a telephoto zoom lens designed for photographers who use EOS M series mirrorless cameras and want extra reach without extra bulk. Its 55 to 200 mm zoom range, equivalent to 88 to 320 mm on an APS-C sensor, lets you move from casual portraits to distant wildlife with a single twist of the zoom ring.

Canon combined an aspherical element with a UD element to control chromatic aberration, so colors stay accurate and edges stay crisp across the frame. The seven-blade rounded diaphragm turns bright points into smooth bokeh, giving backgrounds a gentle blur that brings subjects forward.

An Optical Image Stabilizer provides up to 3.5 stops of shake compensation. When light fades or when you are tracking action from the sidelines, you can leave the tripod behind and still capture sharp, detailed images.

The STM stepping motor drives autofocus that is smooth and nearly silent, an advantage for video creators and for photographers working around skittish wildlife. Full-time manual focus remains available at any moment, so fine-tuning is as simple as turning the focus ring.

At just 9.17 ounces, the lens slips easily into a day bag. Its compact size makes it a natural companion for travel, hikes, or street photography sessions where freedom of movement matters.

Whether you are framing a mountain peak at sunrise, isolating a player on the field, or filming a city skyline from across the river, the lens delivers the reach, clarity, and dependable handling that help you bring distant scenes closer.
