I have just shot my first professional wedding with the lens and I have to say I am so happy I did. The photographs are tack sharp with great contrast and saturation. I cannot detect any significant distortion at either end of the zoom range. This is a great fast lens and at f2.8 throughout the zoom range an excellent choice for low light shooting.<p> I would highly recommend this lens.

I sold my Canon 28-135mm IS lens. And so glad I did. The optics on this lens is far better. It's a smoother zoom action too.
Okay, the build quality isn't as good but I don't tend to knock and kick my lenses around anyway so the build quality is totally okay for normal day to day use. In fact based on some reviews I've read I was very pleasantly surprised at how robust it felt.
I bought this lens on ebay for £175 in as new condition. I sold my Canon 28-135 on ebay for £280. I've got a sharper and faster lens and over £100 in my wallet. I'm very happy.
