 "S-L-O-W focus lens" 2010-02-24
By S. Condray (2nd star to the right)
took this on a recent trip to Cuba (yes, Cuba... I went there legally to do "religious encouragement"... at least that's what I told the State department... I actually wanted to do some taste tests of local rum)



This is a decent walk-around lens, and paired with my Canon T1i produced lots of usable photos, but on the whole it just isn't that great. The vignetting is quite noticeable, the distortion and chromatic aberration was bearable but also noticeable, and the colors weren't as saturated as I would have liked.



BUT!!! It's cheap and it covers a HUGE range, meaning it really does do quite a bit for significantly lower cost than one of the astronomically overpriced canon lenses.



I could live with everything else given the price (truly a steal for this price) except the slow focusing. Especially in medium-low light this thing would just sit and spin (and I never liked those even when I was a kid... I used to get dizzy and throw up... maybe this just brings that to mind and makes me want to vomit). About a dozen really great shots were flubbed because this lens simply didn't focus quickly enough.



If you take pictures of landscapes and people that pose for the picture and don't move and want the versatility in a single reasonably priced lens, then this lens would be great for you. It's light and not too big and takes reasonably decent photos (especially for the price).



I decided I couldn't deal with the slow focus and upgraded to the canon L series (at 4 times the cost I get less range but better sharpness and faster focus).

Extremely well rounded lens. Does away with the need of changing lenses. Only the AF is a bit noisy compared to SIGMA or Canon lenses.

By James P. Malone
Great lens for full time use. IQ isn't 'L' quality but who can afford lenses like that? The Vibration Control enables me, at 75, to take photos at long end of lens, something I couldn't do on the 18-200 lens I had before this one. Service and delivery were great also.

 "Great all-purpose lens" 2010-01-09
By J. Bruning (Lindon, UT USA)
Great all-purpose lens. Not an expert photog, but the lens is very versatile and functions well. Good in moderate light as well. Would recommend the lens.
