Nah, that's ok, it's pretty similar to my own experience, it's just that the
lens gets excoriated beyond what's justified. For the price, it's not bad,
that's all.


I sent it anyway.

There's no way a lot of 'good' lenses can survive comparison to 28-80
f/2.8 lenses, but some seem content to do so.

Cheers,
Alan.

Heck, my favorite lens, the 28-135 IS, pales in comparison to the 24-70
f2.8L. And the 18-55 certainly isn't any 28-135 IS, either... ;-)
BTW, I didn't get the summary...
