This telephoto zoom lens is designed with Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer technology while retaining compactness and lightness, in response to demands of photographers. This high zoom ratio lens is equivalent to a focal length of 88-400mm in the 35mm format (when used on Canon EOS cameras compatible with EF-S lenses), and the image stabilizer effect equivalent to a shutter speed about 4 stops faster than the same size lens without Image Stabilizer. In other words, if the slowest shutter speed you could formerly hold a 250mm lens steadily was 1/250th of a second, with Canon's 4-stop stabilization correction, you could hand-hold at shutter speeds as slow as 1/15th of a second. It also uses a UD-glass lens element to correct chromatic aberration for excellent image quality throughout the zoom range. This new EF-S telephoto lens with great features delivers excellent performance at an affordable price for all photographers.

5 of 5 This thing is amazing Sunday, July 19, 2009
alexk1979 from Miami, FL  

This lens is like having a set of binoculars than the normals SKR's come with. I paid more than this. Get it, it's amazing If you have the money but don't know where to look, this one is super easy to use too, but yet when used properly, can be amazing. Not the best in the world, but the best in this price and class range.

5 of 5 Good lens, great price! Friday, January 16, 2009
A Customer from Ohio  
Like most other reviews suggested, the auto focus can lag behind a little. But, for the price with the IS and overall quality, it's a good lens.

5 of 5 LOVE THIS LENS! Saturday, August 09, 2008
A Customer from Lancaster, KY  
I have been wanting an IS since I got my dream camera--Canon Rebel XTI. What a difference. I haven't had as much time as I would like to play with it but so far I am thrilled with the results! I enjoy nature photography. I can't wait to go heron hunting on the lake with this new toy!!!
