Recommend? yes |
Price paid: Not Indicated
| Rating: 6
|
Pros:
|
range, weight, better construction quality than sigma counterpart, a bit more reach than the sigma
|
Cons:
|
AF, sharpness, zoom ring is too tight, soft at telephoto end
|
|
A decent walkaround for the lightweight enthusiast but not good for much else. At f8 it's decent, fairly sharp. AF in low light is an absolute nightmare, even w/ IR assist. Good for the 300D/Rebel crowd if you're pinching pennies, just don't expect a great shots from this glass.
