Epinions A last minute addition that has proven to be a great asset

by  ncphototrekker,  Mar 5, 2008

Pros: Typical Canon "L" build quality...excellent. Silent AF, constant aperture, internal focusing.

Cons: The only negative is there is no hyperfocal scale.

The Bottom Line: For the landscape photographer on a budget, this is a must have lens to start your quality lens collection. There is plenty of focal range for flexibility.
