4 out of 5 stars Great lens for price   March 2, 2010
T. W. Ashworth (Simi Valley, CA USA)
Got this to shoot elephant seals on central California coast. Very sharp lens. Construction feels solid. Front of lens rotates during focus which means can't use polarizer during action shots. Wish lens was faster, but that would make it much more expensive.

I bought this as a Christmas present for my wife who is an amateur photographer. She loves it. She's impressed with the portrait capability, color and clarity for the price. Since she's happy, I'm happy.

5 out of 5 stars The Lens is great and very easy to use   February 7, 2010
Melissa Black (Mooresville NC)
My Husband and I purchased the lens to go to Mexico and it worked wonderful. We ended up taking almost 1000 pictures and look forward to taking pictures of my son playing baseball.


5 out of 5 stars nice upgrade   February 1, 2010
B. Florence
This is a great upgrade lens from any kit lens; the optical quality is quite good, and the IS helps. When using the IS, remember to keep the shutter half-way pushed for about a second before shooting, which allows the IS to kick in.

On my 40D, I felt this lens was a bit tight due to the crop factor. I picked up a 5D (original version) and the lens came to life. I really like the combination and have decided to put off getting a 70-200L for a while. This will do just fine. I just have to decide what wide angle zoom to get, now (probably the 17-40L).

My gripes with this lens are minimal; the lens does extend when it zooms; the rotating focus element is not a problem for me. Sometimes I forget to change the lens settings on the lens (mode 1 or 2, AF on or off). It's just something I have to learn.
