Great overall lens
Have owned two of them since 2001. I have used them within my photo studio for all types of images from commercial, wedding and portrait since 2001 on full frame and crop sensor digitzal EOS bodies as well as Rebel XSI bodies.

Good starter lens
This is a good starter lens that allows the user to get used to using their camera with little to worry about with the lens. It has good resolution even at the extremes of the zooming.

I believe you have to look for a good copy. Love the range on the 1.6 crop. Very seldom do I have to switch out lenses for a wedding, except of course wide angle and low light.
Pros:
- Sharp
- IS works well
- good walk around lens for the money
Cons:
- A little light fall off
- Zoom loose after heavy use

Great !!
I am stunned at the image quality this lens has produced for me. Action shots are crystal clear thanks to IS which is extremely quiet compared to my other Canon lenses. And indoor shots without a flash are a breeze, thanks to the 3.5 aperture and IS.
Pros:
- IS
- USM
- PERFECT FOR EVERY DAY USE
- GREAT PICTURES INDOORS AND OUT
Cons:
- NOT WIDE ENOUGH FOR WIDE ANGLE SHOTS ON 1.6 DIGITAL CAMERAS

good lens, but too long for a half-frame body
I own a Canon Rebel XTi an entry-level SLR and I purchased this lens hoping I can use it as an all around lens, but I quickly realized this is probably not going to be so. If you, like me, own a half-frame camera, you will probably want to consider getting an additional lens to cover the wide-angle...

Canon EF 28-135mm lens
Though not the image quality desired for PRO use, this lens is very capable for the hobbyist. Close work with average to good lighting has resulted in some clear quality images with my Canon 40D. I was not as pleased with the far range as the focus seems soft.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Easily Interchangeable
- Good amature lens
- Lightweight
- Quick Focus
Cons:
- Not weatherdust sealed
- Soft focus at far range

Good lens (buy in kit for less then stand alone)
If you are on a budget, but want an overall good lens that will give you sharp pictures for the price, then this is the lens to buy. If you can only purchase one lens go with one with image stabilization (IS) you will be happier and have fewer blurry pictures.
Pros:
- Wide range of zoom positions and has IS
Cons:
- Not great for low light pictures
