    Cons: Some distortion are noticeable but appcetable. Lens creep. Need to engage the lock all the time.

    Pros: Sharp image at all zoom range. Great travel lens. Great price. Good bokeh. Good build quality.

    Summary: I've been using this lens most of the time now. It's a great walkaround lens for travelling and day to day casual shooting. Goes well with my Canon 7D, 40D, and 550D...

    Cons: AF is slow and loud. Manual focus is also loud and not very smooth. Sharpness at highest and lowest focal lenght are not so good. Colors are dull and dark. Bad for macro due to high minimal focus distance and low magnification.

    Pros: Universal, compact, relatively light, feels sturdy, surprisingly good bokeh even with only 7 aperture blades, cheap, comes in various mounts and with a lens hood, can use filters, sharpness in mid focal lenghts is very good.

    Summary: If you need a budget travel lens and take photos in dailight then it's a ok lens.

    Cons: Poor image quality

    Pros: Very compact Nice feel and look

    Summary: Makes a perfect combination with a compact DSLR. Just don't expect too much from the image quality. Way better than any bridge/superzoom camera though.
