Product Description
Compact, lightweight and a wide magnification range - this standard zoom lens features a wide focal length range from normal to telephoto equivalent to 29-320mm in the 35mm format. It features an Optical Image Stabilizer for up to 4-stops of effective correction even at full zoom. Since Canon's optical image stabilization system is in the lens, not in the camera, you can see the stabilized, steadier images through the viewfinder. And the circular aperture can give beautiful background blur effects. This new wide zoom ratio EF-S lens delivers excellent high-speed performance at an affordable price.

 An excellent Lens January 6, 2009

This lens is excellent value for money. I have had it for 2 weeks now, it works extremely well with low lights and all in all i am very happy with it.
 Almost a great lens, except the focus ring. January 5, 2009

I got this lens along with an EOS 50D, and so far I'm thrilled with the quality of the photos. But I noticed right away that when using manual focus for botanical photos (a must), the focus ring feels loose and really difficult to use. I've since found the same complaint on a number of photography Web sites. As a work-around I focus as close as possible with the focus ring, then use the zoom ring to make fine adjustments. Otherwise, I agree with the other reviewers that this is a really great all-purpose lens, and I highly recommend it, but it does have this one frustrating flaw that hopefully Canon will fix in future models.

I started out with the Tamron 17-50mm F2.8 and the thing would just not focus correctly. I went through two copies and still didn't get a good one. Then I switched to the Canon 18-200 IS lens and am sure glad I did. The comparison is apples to oranges because the lenses are different fundamentally so take it for what it is. I do miss the fast f2.8 of the Tamron but for a carry around lens the 18-200 rules the roost IMO. The focus is tack sharp 95% of the time. I think at least 3% of that is due to the camera choosing an unintended focus point when I have it in 9 point focus mode. If you are looking for a lens that will focus perfectly almost every time then this is a good choice (among other reasons).
I'm very satisfied with this lens, the IS works as advertised. Would not hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for a good all around carry lens.
One note, if you are putting this on a Canon XSi or similar small body DSLR this lens weighs more than the body. It is a heavy lens but I wouldn't consider that as a deterrent. Get the Canon battery grip to add more bulk and weight to the body and it evens out nicely.

When I received my Canon 18-200mm Lens I couldn't wait to try it out and I have to say that I'm very PLEASED. I took a few shots in a shaded area with my flash off and the pictures came out GREAT.

Tired of switching L lenses. Tried this one and love it. Excellent travel lens. Works perfectly with my Canon 40D.
