    9 out of 10 points and recommended
    Sharpness, color
    none

    This is one of the most sucessful Canon lenses. For the price it sells for it provides great sharpness and beautiful color. Great on my D20.

    slow, not in par with L lenses in terms of sharpness and build quality

    Great build quality, good color and sharpness
    Slow, Not sharp evenly throughout the zoom range

    Great inexpensive wide angle lens. amasingly solid construction and great color rendition. Could be a little more sharp when zoomed-in. Love that lens.

  • Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II

    8 out of 10 points and recommended
    Shapr, Cheap, Fast for the money you'll invest in it
    Autofocus sucks, poor built quality

    Wow! What a great lens for $80! It is one of the best secrets in the Canon's lens product line. Every one of us the canon followers should have it. It is fast, sharp, great portrait lens for D-SLR. Well, it is built like a Mcdonald's kids meal toy but for the price I shouldn't complain. Highly recommended!
