This lens is a great value.
feels well constructed, opitical quality is good(could be better but not for the price range).
It's great for beginers or amatuers.

Used the lens for about 1 year and had no problems with it.
great range, 28mm is very wide on 35mm format cameras.
great walk around lens.
canon also has amazing online customer support.

After I ordered this lens I was a little worried that I made a mistake, that I probably wouldn't use it as much as the others.... I was definatly wrong! I love this lens and infact it has been on my Xti most over the others I have (50mm,75-300mm and the lens kit 18-55mm. It was well worth the $105.00 and for that price....really...why not get it!?

I am not a professional by any means but I have been very happy with the pictures I have taken with this lens.

I am a hobby shooter so this was a perfect solution for me. I needed something with a bit more reach than my kit 18-55mm but wanted something fairly versatile. This lens was cheap and takes great shots. I am sure something with better glass and stabilization would be better, but for the price I am 100% satisfied.

The lens is compact and I have taken several hundred city-scape shots as well as several hundred sports action shots with awesome results. I love this lens, it is probably the most versatile lens I have.
