reviewswhat are people saying

"A fast lens with as broad a range of focal length as possible is a must."

"Photos are crisp and contrast is great at 400 ISO. Nearly as crisp as my L-series Canon lenses."

"The negatives are that this lens is quite large and there is a slight sticking point when going from zoomed in to out."

It's quite big but really good one, works great on my Canon 60D. Sometimes, it's hard to twist the lens when zooming
