Quality and price match

Once again, you get what you pay for. I use this with a Rebel XTi. This lens works great, quiet enough focus and covers a good range at a great price. However, I hope you like your pictures a little soft. All my pictures are a little soft with...

Great price, great quality.

 

Great price, great quality.

I really don't understand the negative reviews, this lens is an ideal all round lens, it isn't expensive and its great quality for the price, it isn't amazing but the quality is ideal for me, I am intern photographer, and a photography student, its a...

A good solid mid-range portrait lens

 

A good solid mid-range portrait lens

I have to disagree with the nay sayers that reviewed this lens. It is a very good lens and a terrific value. It has sharp focus through most of it's range and is a perfect companion for any Canon EOS camera. In fact I like it so much that it will...

Awful lens

 

Awful lens

I bought EOS 20D and took this lens as well as my camera was without a lens. Most of the pictures shot with this lens are pretty blury. Even some of them when the flash was enabled were strange. Other times I managed to get a good picture or two. All...

spend a bit more and buy the 3.5-4.5

 

spend a bit more and buy the 3.5-4.5

For $100 more, buy the 28-105mm 3.5-4.5 version. results are far better. This lens (4-5.6) is not quite there. don't even buy it.

A bad lens rendered irrelevant by the faster version.

There's not much to say that hasn't been covered by the other reviews; this is a bad lens. If it were considerably cheaper it would be attractive for really low-budget amateurs. At the $150 price point, the performance shortcomings do not justify the...

I have to agree with other reviewers. However to show a couple GOOD points- it's compact, and has a nice quiet zoom. However it's price range is really not worth it.

If I could give it less than 1 star, I would!

 

If I could give it less than 1 star, I would!

Even on a tight budget, these lens are not worth getting. Poor contrast, poor light, and especially has lack of sharpness in photos. At first I thought something was wrong with my technique, but then realized it was the lens. It also takes forever to...

No reason to buy this lens

 

No reason to buy this lens

There's absolutely no reason to buy this lens when you can instead get the Canon EF 28-105 f/3.5-4.5. It's a faster lens with signiicantly better image and build quality, and is only about $50 more than this cheap plastic/slower version.

Product Specifications

An entirely new lens which joins Canon's existing 28-105 f/3.5-4.5 USM in the line-up. It's the smallest and lightest zoom in the 28-105 class, and its new optical system includes an Aspherical element. Most noteworthy is its new Micro USM II - half the size of previous Micro USMs, and its use of internal focusing (no front element rotation during focusing).
