The kit lens just dosn't cut it for longer shots. This lens does and then some. The IS is great. I can't complain about any thing.
 Very Good Telephoto zoom for the money March 13, 2007

Although there are a few small minor issues with this lens, for the most part it is well worth the money, the IS works remarkably well and I have taken some extremely sharp photos with it and my Rebel XTi. The 70-300 range is versitle and I have even taken very clear shots of the moon, wildlife and far away scenery. The negatives have to do mostly with its construction: The fully extended lens is very long, especially with the hood. Oh yeah, the hood was an extra $30+ :( ; The barrel wobbles a bit and sometimes it can't autofocus at 300mm. The barrel also rotates when focussing which makes it difficult to use a circular polarizing filter. In spite of these flaws I would recommend the lens as a really good consumer grade product. I use this lens with a Canon close-up lens sometimes to get awsome macro shots. I have a 1.4X teleconverter on the way that will extend its range to 420mm (672mm on the XTi). I will update this review after trying the teleconverter.
Good entry level telephoto March 1, 2007

This appears to be a popular lens for those of us starting out in photography as far a tele-photo goes. The "IS" is a great feature worth its weight in gold. I have used this lens now on a few occasions with great results when adaquate light is available. Just remember shes not the fastest lens in the line up but for its $500+ price tag, you cant go wrong. Who wants to pony up $1600+ for the Canon 70-200mm f/2.8l "is" lens when this lens produces such great results at a third of the price ?
One word.... AWESOME! February 16, 2007

I bought this lens after returning the canon 75-300 that I was very unhappy with.
This lens has impressed me every step of the way and yielded some excellent images. I highly recommend it. and if your on the fence like I was trying to decide if you need the IS or not. Just do it. you wont be sorry, My only regret was wasting my time with the non IS version.
Click order and enjoy. You will thank me.
