Great Buy November 23, 2009
Blue-eyes79 (Miami,Fl)
Great Buy. At first i thought I was getting a peace of junk. I have tested this camera several times a day. I have found it to be very usefull for targets that are a little ways out there. I have gone to Freeport, Bahamas and took great pictures with this lens. I am kindaa new to this lens. I have liked taking picture since I was 14 years old and now my hobbie is Photography!
 Very happy with this lens November 6, 2009

I see a lot of bad reviews on this lens. I honestly can't see why. If I can capture a squirrel in tall grass 50 feet away, hand held, overcast and in the resulting image I can count the hairs on the squirrels face. The hairs are sub-pixel sized. In other words the lens out performed the sensor. There isn't any thing wrong with the lens. The auto focus selected the subject of the image, not the grass and quickly focused it. Even at full zoom the aperture was sufficient to shoot hand held at ISO400, under cloudy skies. So it's not image stabilized ... Boo Hoo! It also doesn't cost as much as a stabilized lens. You can buy a pretty nice tripod for the price difference between this lens and a stabilized one. Can you get better glass for less, maybe. You can also spend a lot more money and not do better. So unless you are a pro shooting in fast paced environments this lens will do fine. If you are a pro why are you looking at an entry level lens?
Something else to consider is that the USM, IS version of this lens is really the same glass in a fancier can and three times the price. If you want the bells and whistles go for it. The best value is here in the cheap seats.
 Good starter....... October 28, 2009

This is a really good starter lens, limited sharpness, but you pay for what you get. For the price, GREAT................

I was surprised by the ease of use. And then again, I have been a Canon fan since purchasing my very first Canon AE-1P in January of 1983. Therefore, I would expect nothing less from Canon...
Excellent helping tool October 14, 2009

I am just an amateur photographer and this telephoto lens is really helpful for portrait or scenic pictures.
