Pros:
lightweight, all purpose travelling lens. very good images. well built.
Cons:
not fast aperture, little soft at long end, 150mm + above
I Brought this lens as I wanted an all purpose lens, which could stay on the camera most of the time. I recently returned from a trek to everest base camp, where the lens stayed on the camera[ canon 30D] all the trip. very pleased with rusults. I try not to use 150mm or longer as the softness is noticeable. I have compared with canon 50mm1.8 Standard lens, and it is hard to tell any noticeable difference in normal conditions. all very unscientific I know but ok for me.
