 solid lens so far September 30, 2008
Having only used the lens for a few weeks, I have not had that many opportunities to see limitations, but overall the lens seems to do all that I could have asked of it. The autofocus seems to be very fast and accurate. It is not a "l" series lens, but for the price and the focal length, it is able to capture action frames as fast as the Rebel xsi it is mounted on will cycle. I am very pleased with the performance of this lens so far and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for an affordable way to outfit their digital SLR.

This lens is outstanding. I am a rookie mom taking football pictures for my freshman son's games and the photos I have been able to get are great. I am in the stands and my pictures look like I am right next to the players. I can see their eyes in some photos.
I bought my camera at Best Buy but found that Amazon had the best price for lens and memory cards
Great lens package.
Love this lens September 8, 2008
This is my first dSLR camera, so I do not have much experience with other lenses. I can tell you every shot I take looks great, well, as great as the operators abilities! I have captured some wonderful shots of birds from across my yard, the details remain clear even if I crop them in futher later.
 WAY too expensive, but... September 8, 2008
WAAAAY too expensive (they all are though) but it gets the job done. A decent lens, but it's definitely NOT an "all-in-one"... you'll need others to get the job done. The low and high ends are pretty much useless, but the mid-range is good.
Canon EF70-300mm F4-5.6 IS USM September 7, 2008
Lens was all I had hoped for, performed great when just shooting hand held on solid land or when bobbing around in a kayak. Excellent wild-life and scenery shots under varying conditions and distances.
