Good Points: Excellent lens - the image stabiliser makes all the difference as my photos are in low light with no tripod. Bad Points: None really!

i got this lens with the 500d and i really like it but i do have some problems with it one been that i can not zoom with out it jumping, i mean that it get stuck when zooming slowly. other from that it is a nice lens. i am sending it back a getting a new one so i hope it is better quality

I am very pleased with this lens. I have had my camera for several years but did not have this lens. It is a great addition and is great for standard picture taking.

all that is stated

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Consistent Output; Easily Interchangeable; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Lightweight; Nice Bokeh

Difficult to Clean; Weak Casing

I've been using this lens for the past one month now and I must say I am pretty happy with it overall. I mostly use it as my travel lens. It has been fairly consistent I've had minimal blurriness although I would say it is not as sharp as my EFS 55/250 when it comes to it's focus.

Consistent Output; Durable; Easily Interchangeable; Lightweight

Slow Focus; Weak Casing

Ett fint objektiv, inte så väldigt ljusstarkt däremot. Det följde med kameran och jag är nöjd med det.

Bra att man kan zooma ut mycket; Bra fokus

Inte så jätte ljusstarkt

This lens came with my 550D but does it not offer sharp and crispy pictures, it is good lens for Family pictures and it will somehow fill all the megapixels in your DSLR but results are just normal. Do not get trapped with this kit lens, buy a body and go for 50mm f1.8 instead.

My Canon Digital Rebel came with this lense. I would recommend that if you are planing to buy a Cano

Value; Sharpness; great for lanscape and sky pictures

Not long enough (not enough zoom); hard to pull in some subjects

What more do you want in a basic zoom lens? 3x zoom, compact, image stabilization to help compensate for it not being a particularly fast (wide aperture) lens. Appears to be pretty sturdy for a budget lens and I've had good luck with all the other Canon AF lenses I own.
