What's great about it:?Large zoom range, decent price. What's not so great:?VERY needy of light, cheap construction, very slow AF. "Some contend this is a great lens for beginners, but I tend to disagree. The aperture is extremely slow in almost any lighting which makes taking crisp photos extremely difficult without a solid tripod in use at all times. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?Excellent for the price, good crisp images much better than Sigma What's not so great:?Yet to see any. "I have been using Canon cameras and lenses for over 20 years. They are by far the best quality made. from Bestbuy.com ProsI have only had this a few weeks but I love the lens. It has just as crisp a picture as before. from Dell.com Lens is made of plastic instead of metal, so the operation is rough and sticky, instead of smooth and free. It does take a good picture once you get it adjusted tho. from Amazon.com This is a good lens but, with the built-in zoom on my camera, I didn't really need it. It may just be that I need more experience with cameras and lenses before going for something like this. from Amazon.com This lens is better than I expected!! it works great, it is light enough to carry around all day and certainly does what a good telephoto lens should do without disappointment. from Amazon.com It is a very fast focusing lens. I used it at a soccer game and got Great shots. from Amazon.com It's a great lens, and the USM motors really do help you focus a lot faster, but still not quite as fast as the smaller lenses. If you're zoomed all the way in to 250-300mm, you're really going to notice the missing image stabilization (which this lens doesn't have). from Amazon.com I'm very pleased with this purchase. The lens came quickly and I'm enjoying using it! from Amazon.com gives great depth, however, would prefer to have had image stabilizer. good lens for the price and if willing to learn to steady hand and perhaps buy a tripod, should be fine for learning to shoot action and distanced landscape. from Amazon.com
