I owned a D30 before getting the 10D; while I liked the D30 a lot, the new camera corrects every deficiency of the D30 (except the 1.6 FOV) while adding some truly useful improvements: ISO 800 and 1600 now become usable; it's possible to focus the camera in nearly every situation; E-TTL flash is now reliable; and changing every setting on the camera has gotten much more convenient.
I have no complaints with this machine. Truly the bargain of the year.

Pros:
|
Absolutely sharp throughout the range. Superb contrast and color, at least equal to my 50 f/8.
|
|
Cons:
|
Very big and very heavy. With the hood it looks like a 300mm and attracts a lot of attention.
|
|
|
Swift and silent focusing, just the right resistance on the zoom ring. Superb build quality. Only caveat: Be sure you consider the size and weight. I'm keeping mine, but a lens of this caliber may not be for everybody.
