I have just replaced my preferred lens (18-55 and 19-35mm) by this one, and it is amazing the versatility that I had during my vacation with my family. I was able to take the right scene and momentum, widening or closing the zoom on at my kids. It´s worthy for a daddy!! Canon at this time, surpassed my expectatives even been more expensive, but it has a smooth and fast zoom motor, 3.5-5.6 giving more sensibility to indoor shots. It is heavy, but for all the pros I gained, it deserves a good evaluation.
What's great about it: One lens for all day-by-day events with lens lock
What's not so great: heavy for carrying many hours
