Have been shooting with tis lens for about 5 months

This is the first IS lens that I've owned. I had trouble justifying the extra expense but am now quite pleased that I took the step up.Keep in mind that tis is an EF not EF-S lens.

Although it is fairly heavy, the difference in build and image quality between the 18-55 kit lens is incomparable. This lens takes beautiful pictures and operates flawlessly...
