Pros:
|
Sharp, light, great length, solid build

Cons:

Not much, but with 1.6 crop the lens is not pushed with my 10D

I've used this lens whenever I travel and it's great for some landscape shots. A little slow for indoor work, so you need a flash, but again the 1.6 crop keeps the flash from falling off. I had tried the Sigma 15-30 without getting the quality of photo that this lens brings. 77mm makes polarizing filter costly though.

Pros:
|
Sharp. IS is great, easy to hand-hold for action shots down to 1/125 s.
|
|
Cons:
|
Getting used to slide zoom.

It has almost replaced my 70-200 f4 because of the IS. Great lens, not as sharp as the 70-200, nor as fast AF but the IS makes up for nearly two stops out at 400 mm. Still need to get close for good wildlife shots, so the 1.4x may be the next addition.
Check other reviews for optics on full frame cameras.
