Well-built lens. It provides excellent sharpness (after I sent my 7D in for an autofocus issue) even wide-open and has reasonably fast focusing. The zoom ring is a lot stiffer than my old Maxxum lenses, but is smooth and the barrel doesn’t creep when the camera is pointed down. A fair trade. I use it as a people lens at family gatherings and wedding receptions where it’s f2.8 constant maximum aperture works well with the camera’s stabilization to keep flash usage to a polite minimum. I took a star off only because I wish the wide end was 24 mm instead of 28.
