 Rating: - You don't own this yet?I'm always hesitant about making large dollar purchases and this was no exception. I read just about every review on the web before I decided this was the best choice. The reviews were true. This lens is fantastic! My older brothers each have a Canon Rebel XTi and a Nikon D60. Each have lenses with similar zoom range and f-stop values as this one but both of them were very impressed when they tried it out. Even complementing about how it felt better than theirs (certainly not like them ... Read More Rating: - Better than prime lens?This is a dream lens. It is built beautifully, balances well in the hand, delivers tack sharp images and focuses very quickly and quietly.

Obviously better build here. Heavier but not a lot bigger. Balances well on the camera. Focus is quieter and much, much faster. Sharper throughout the range. Extra 2/3 stop at the wide end makes a difference, especially indoors. Barrel distortion is minimal. Added speed and reach on the long end make it viable for portraits. Throw in "almost macro" close focus and it's a good general purpose ... Read More |
