Cons: It is a kit. After almost 6 years of using this it looks crappy and makes clunky noises. Zoom and af rings has lost its nice resistance, but it survived a lot and still makes good photos.
Pros: Very sharp @5.6. It is a good lens. Not only as per for kit lens. It is generally a good lens. I had it for several trips: -20 Celsius (Polish winter) up to +45 (Shara) I used to carry it all the time (no longer since my preferences changed) but I still use it ocassionally.
Summary: At the firs look it seems to be more solid than regular kit lens. it's true. It's zoom construction is very delicate and after heavy usage some out of axis defects prone, but it still remains fully usable DX lens
