Using a Canon Digital Rebel, sold my 28-135mm lens for this lens. Quality is superior. Is almost at the Canon “L” series level. It’s lighter, more compact & weighs less. Very satisfied with the photos I’ve taken. A serious contender.

Although this lens is a bit on the heavy side, it makes a great walk-around lens for everyday shooting and vacations. I shot a roll of Agfa Precisa 100 and the results were remarkable. Very accurate colors and excellent contrast. If you have to travel light, this is the lens to carry. If you plan on using it on a digital camera, it’s still fairly wide at a film equivalent of 38 mm at the low end of the zoom.

If you are like many of us trying to get our collective juices going, this lens will not disappoint. It has an excellent zoom range that gives you the most used focal lengths and produces an excellent product. I recently compared this to a Canon 24-70mm L series and I must say that unless you are getting paid major bucks for you photos it really isn’t worth money other than for bragging rites.
Now thats not to say that the lens is equal to L glass. Its not. But damn close. I would say though that this lens is equal to if not superior to the non L line of lenses from Canon.
You will not be disappointed.
