This particular lens was a let down all the way around. Not only was the lens heavy but each and every condition I put it through in the brief time I tried it out was slow to focus and generally soft.
If you are looking for a wide lens, I would recommend a prime or sticking with the trusty 24-70mm 2.8. It isn't quite as wide and IS more expensive but you will definitely get your $$$s worth.
