Fantastic lens worth the investment – I purchased this lens following reading a lot of reviews and testing the lens in camera stores. The price of this lens is the main drawback for purchasing it, but on line stores have some pretty good bargains. The performance of this lens is incredible, I like it especially in low light environments and sports shooting. The USM drive is very quiet and very quick and extremely accurate. The weight of the lens is noticable, but the performance of this lens outshines that small burden. The sealing of the lens is excellent and guarantees to keep out dust and moisture. Picture quality is incredibly sharp. The Image Stabilizer function is brilliant. I use this lens and a 17-85 IS on my 20D and both are exceptional quality products. This is a very high quality lens that is worth saving for. No regrets spending the extra money over the f/4 lens which just doesn't come near the performance of the f/2.8.I have read reports where users have had trouble with the focus and stabilizer buttons on the body of the lens, but I have not experienced this problem. Just an awareness of these controls when using the lens will prevent errors. The lens is of solid build, sealed well and very high quality. It weighs in around 1.9kg but performance is superb.

Good – It is a quite simple and easy to use camera, especially for the new beginners in photography. But it just a litle bit heavy for it's small shape. About the price, I thought it's suitable with the benefit that you will get. So, after using it, I'm not too much dissapointed, because it has helped me from so many troubles that occured from my previous camera, like noice that occured when you make some movement, dusted lense, and etc. Well, I'll advice you to buy this!! You'll love it!!! The new lens with image stabilizer has become more efficient for it's autofocus system. I can smoothly and clearly capturing pictures even when I was driving a car or making some movement. The autofocus doesn't work well when I use it in a darker condition, even I have used the light.
