Worth every penny
Not willing to spend $600 for the Canon 18-200 IS, but distrustful of the Sigma/Tamron 18-200s that have a max aperture of 6.3 at the tele end, I found that what I really wanted was something like the ol' 28-200 I used to carry on my film cameras.

Well worth it.
This was just what I was hoping for. I had read pros and cons from others, but I read a review from a canon user mag that rated it a best buy for mid range zooms. I am very pleased with the performance so far. The motor for the auto focus sometimes is busy, but it is not a deal breaker.

Fantastic Lens
After using the 18-55mm lens that came with my DSLR for nearly a year I get fed up with not being able zoom in to a subject if they were too far away. So I researched for a couple of weeks on which was the best lens to get. It was between this and the Nikon 18-105, so I went for this.

MIND BLOWING LENS................
This 18-125mm multipurpose zoom lens is amazing and the picture quality is great. It works as wide angle lens and a mid range telephoto lens. I have bought this one for my Nikon D5100 and works well. By the way thanks to flipkart for their correct delivery and service is great too...

Pros:
- Impressive 7x zoom range

My move from superzoom bridge camera to SLR was fairly smooth but I still hate changing lenses all the time. After doing some research and weighing up my (financial) options, I came to the conclusion that I was only going to be happy with a lens that offered a good zoom range above all else without...
Pros:
- Reduces hassle of changing lenses
- good zoom range
- impressive results
Cons:
- Has an issue with AF
- not quite as sharp
- fast and detailed as seperate lenses

An all purpose lens that does the job
I just wanted an upgrade from my standard kit lens for my Canon slr. After trawling the internet and finding the canon upgrade just a little too expensive I decided to buy the Sigma. I shot a wedding for a friend that weekend and both my friend and I are very happy with the results.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Durable
- Strong Construction

Not what I expected
I was anticipating the release of this lens for months. Finally a lens that has a decent amount of reach, while being able to back off to 18mm for landscapes. The focal length is probably the best part of this lens, its the perfect walk-around focal length.
Pros:
- Easily Interchangeable
- Image stabilization
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Heavy
- Image Quality
