solid lens so far [Posted on 2008-09-30] Having only used the lens for a few weeks, I have not had that many opportunities to see limitations, but overall the lens seems to do all that I could have asked of it. The autofocus seems to be very fast and accurate. It is not a "l" series lens, but for the price and the focal length, it is able to capture action frames as fast as the Rebel xsi it is mounted on will cycle. I am very pleased with the performance of this lens so far and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for an affordable way to outfit their digital SLR.
Love the lens - hate the tax [Posted on 2008-10-07] The lens meets my expectations. I'm disappointed with picture quality at 300mm, blurry - definately need a tripod.
I'm angry about an added charge for New York sales tax. I'm not a resident of NY. Amazon wouldn't ship the item to an APO address (which our federal government declares must be viewed as a US address); so I had it delivered to a family member in NY, then forwarded to me. I was shocked to see the previously undisclosed charge added to my bill.
Amazing!!!!!!!!!! [Posted on 2008-10-20] I am using this lense on a Canon Xsi and it is truely amazing. The pictures are so sharp and clear. I could not be happier with this purchase. It is a lot of money but well worth it. I love it!!!
Great IS and Bokeh [Posted on 2008-10-24] With this lens, I can capture very nice pictures of my kids/nephew/niece. The IS work wells. Handling is good. Bokeh is what I expected.
The only thing that I like to have is the Full-Time Manual Focus which it doesn't have.
Canon comes through again with another great product! [Posted on 2008-10-30] Great and powerful lens! I used it with the xsi and will with the 50d. The pics so far are ourstanding. I do think it's a little pricey but the IS system is worth it.
