Once again, you get what you pay for. I use this with a Rebel XTi. This lens works great, quiet enough focus and covers a good range at a great price. However, I hope you like your pictures a little soft. All my pictures are a little soft with this lens. It is worth a little more money to get a better lens. If you are just a student or taking a photography class and don't really need super sharp pictures this may be great for you.

I really don't understand the negative reviews, this lens is an ideal all round lens, it isn't expensive and its great quality for the price, it isn't amazing but the quality is ideal for me, I am intern photographer, and a photography student, its a Canon lens and Canon don't make bad equipment, I use this lens for an everyday lens, its great if I'm looking for something thats simlar to what the eye sees. I use a wide-angle, a macro, and a telephoto for my other needs and this is a great in-between lens for when I don't want the extremes of an angle. For a great all round reliable brand name lens at a great price, this is the lens for you!!

I bought EOS 20D and took this lens as well as my camera was without a lens. Most of the pictures shot with this lens are pretty blury. Even some of them when the flash was enabled were strange. Other times I managed to get a good picture or two. All in all, I am quite unhappy with this lens. Avoid it at all cost.

For $100 more, buy the 28-105mm 3.5-4.5 version. results are far better. This lens (4-5.6) is not quite there. don't even buy it.
By Richard B. Williams (Los Alamos, NM USA)
There's not much to say that hasn't been covered by the other reviews; this is a bad lens. If it were considerably cheaper it would be attractive for really low-budget amateurs. At the $150 price point, the performance shortcomings do not justify the cost.
I bought this lens because bottom dollar was my #1 priority, and this was a mistake. Canon's faster/stronger/more robust sister lens is (at most) $100 more expensive and the results are vastly superior.
One particularly disturbing aspect of this cheap-feeling plastic lens is the fact that the forward tube, when extended at 105mm, wiggles back and forth noticeably - the mechanical tolerances on this device are horrible. I also found that it is very easy to get dust and dirt into this lens (probably also due to the bad tolerances), so don't try to use it in a dirty environment.
