Exceeded my expectations by a large margin
By Nate Dukes on Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2018
I bought this to fill a small niche in my photography that my trusty 24-135 never filled to my satisfaction: landscape and interior sport stadiums. I'll admit that I haven't had a chance to shoot a lot of either yet, but the few test shots I have taken have been stellar. Pictures are clear edge to edge, even for wide open. There's noticeable vignetting, but nothing that the camera won't compensate for (if shooting jpeg) or that I can't adjust for in Lightroom (when shooting raw). It seems pretty sturdy, but is surprisingly light, feeling more comparable in heft to an 18-55 kit lens than something like an L-Series piece of glass, though that is expected at this price point. I can say that it does NOT feel cheap, though (something that I can't say for the 18-55 kit lenses). Taken care of, I can bet it will outlive a number of camera bodies that I'm likely to use it on over the years. There are countless reviews online that go into depth on a lot of the technical aspects of the lens, so I'll leave you with this: I'm glad I bought it and am kicking myself for waiting as long as I did to purchase it.

This lens feels and looks really cheap when taking it out of the box and it's very small. In comparison to a Cannon 18-200 its hard to set the ISO and shutter speed for indoor pictures ( The Lens Is slow) . It should be ok if the Light is good like using it outside in the day time. I feel I should have spent double the money for the faster 18-22? It has a great wide angle and really captures quit a bit of the peripheral view with very straight lines.
