Pros:

Very sharp at all focal lengths. 'L' quality pictures without a question. Doesn't feel cheap at all - feels solid. IS is top-notch

Cons:
|
Expensive. No hood included for a lens this expensive.

This is without a doubt an 'L' quality lens as far as image quality goes. It surpasses my EF 28-70 f/2.8 L lens in sharpness, contrast and color rendition. This lens lives up to the hype it has received. I took it to the OC auto show the day after I got it to test the IS. I took about 300 pictures total, all with IS on as the lighting inside the venue required it for apertures past 2.8. Every single one with the exception of maybe 10 were very sharp. I was shooting at f/8 all the way to f/16 to get all of the car in focus and I was getting keepers all the way down to 1/3 sec. Very happy with this lens
