I got this lens as part of the kit for my EOS 40D. It takes pretty good photos, and has a great range. I had it on the camera on a nature shoot while it was attached to my tripod and whenever I carried the tripod around with the camera attached, the zoom rolled all the way out. Seems very loose to me, so I emailed Canon about it and they said that was normal, but if there was NO resistance to send it back to them. It's not that bad yet, hopefully it won't get any worse. After some experience, I probably should have just got the body only for the 40D and got the Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS SLR Lens for a walk around lens. Probably would have been cheaper too.

I have owned this lens for nearly a year now and am becoming increasingly fond of it. I own several other lenses, but this is the one I now leave mounted on my Rebel XT almost all the time. My love affair with this lens was not immediate, however. At first I was somewhat disappointed with the image stabilization, but after working with it a bit I realized that it was my mode of operation that was at fault. The stabilization doesn't kick in until you partly depress the shutter button (as you do to auto focus) and it takes a couple of beats before it gets up to speed. Also, the lens has to be relatively still (or tracking smoothly) in order for the stabilization to work properly. Initially, I was simply hurrying too much -- raising the camera and clicking off a shot. Now I have learned to work with the lens by slowing down and anticipating the shot, and the results are much better. I recently had the challenge of taking pictures of a performance from the back of a darkened auditorium.

This is my default walk-around lens on my 40D. The focal length range (28-135) spreads between "normal" (as your eye sees it, approximately) to a pretty decent mid-range telephoto (on a "cropped sensor" camera; on a 5D the range would be from mild wide-angle to low telephoto).
Downsides:
1. The IS is single-mode. There is no "panning" IS mode, which I often find useful on my 70-300.
2. The max aperture is "consumer-level", ranging from 3.5 at 28mm to 5.6 at 135. I often really feel it at the telephoto end, having to go to a higher ISO sensitivity just to get the shot.
3. IS may not be incredibly useful at the wide end.
4. Relatively heavy (although not compared to the L lens you would get to "fix" any of the other downsides here!)
Upsides:
1. Very sharp, crystal-clear pictures at every zoom, even fully "wide open" (at max aperture).
2. Smooth, fast, accurate focusing.
Overall, a solid, go-to lens. When going out on a hike, this is the one I'm most likely to grab from my lens
