I had used a Sigma 'super-zoom' (28-300) on a Nikon F100 body, during a vacation trip, and I really liked the flexibility. I was disappointed in the softer images, compared to those from an 85 prime, taken a few weeks later. When I finally bought my 10D, I was looking for similar flexibility, but wanted a sharper image. I also was hoping for a bit wider view. Didn't have the money for a 24-70 (and also wanted a longer tele), so I tried this lens out. Haven't been disappointed yet. Images are sharp, and autofocus is quick (much faster than the Sigma lens). The lens is a bit heavy (no plastic, except for the included hood), and feels very solid.
