Cant really complain.

For the price of this lens i cant really complain. It came wit my Rebel T2i. There is little to no distortion around the edges while it is zoomed all the way out at 18mm. It delivers fairly sharp images. I cant really complain about it besides it being made of plastic and its rotating front element. Also the Auto-focus is not the fastest. Good wide angle for casual photographers and beginners.
Pros: good enough for price
Cons: rotating front element, made of plastic, Slow auto-focus
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is the second time I have Purchased this lens. I first bought it as a kit lens wit Canon 300D a few years ago. I have many fond memories of taking many fine photos encompassing portraits, landscapes, animals and birds. Right now with several L series lenses and some others I did not need this lens but it is very handy for walks with my dog. Excellent purchase for a very small price. photos come out very sharp.
Pros: Superior build quality, Super-sharp images
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love My Lens!

After years of loving my Canon SLR 35mm camera and the quality of my pics, but increasingly finding it difficult to buy the film and processing I wanted, I took the plunge into DSLR. I love my camera and lens. They aren't heavy to cart around, and I can switch lens in a flash. Have only had it one one trip, but can't wait for the fall colors to explore even more!!
Pros: Fast auto-focus, Superior build quality, Super-sharp images
I would recommend this to a friend!
