Bunny Snow Contact Bunny Bunny's Gallery member since: 11/16/2004	Rating: 4.5 out of 5 I always use a tripod because at age 65, I'm not as strong as I was once. But, also, I shoot when the light is low and as light as this lens is, it's too heavy to eliminate all camera movement when the light is low. I increase the sharpness of my images by using the mirror lock custom function and a remote control while shooting on a a sturdy tripod, which gives this lens the best it can offer me. The only thing needed now are sharper eyes. :-) 2/13/2008 7:12:46 PM

Michael  member since: 12/6/2006	Rating: 4.5 out of 5 This is an excellent, lightweight telephoto lens that takes crisp, sharp pictures. Why not a perfect "5?" It doesn't have IS, so unless you're using a tripod, pictures can be blurry. At my price point, however, IS wasn't an option at the time. If price is less of a problem for you, spring for the IS...you'll be happy you did. 12/6/2006 6:20:16 PM
Tim R. Stratton member since: 9/16/2006	Rating: 4.5 out of 5 This is an excellent L series lens. Light weight is this babies strong point. Image quality.. well it's an L so goes without saying it's great. However, I'd trade mine in (and likely will) for the 2.8 IS. Yes, that's about 4x the cost but having 2.8 and IS is worth it. For a sub-$1000 L series Lens, this is the best, infact its top 5 for Lenses under $1000 (canadian) period. If price is no object, go for the new F4 IS or F2.8 IS (skip the non-IS, IS is that good). 9/16/2006 12:50:32 PM

Donna R. Moratelli DonnaraePhotography.com member since: 11/23/2000	Rating: 5 out of 5 This is my favorite lens... It is SUPER-SHARP, light-weight, quiet and very fast. I carry it with me at all times! I think that the quality is equal to any prime lens. I give it a 10! 8/26/2002 4:27:28 PM
