Description
This easy-to-use standard zoom lens can cover a large zoom area
ranging from 24mm wide-angle to 105mm portrait-length telephoto, and its
Image Stabilizer Technology steadies camera shake up to three stops.
Constructed with one Super-UD glass element and three aspherical lenses,
this lens minimizes chromatic aberration and distortion. The result is
excellent picture quality, even at wide apertures. Canon's ring-type USM
gives silent but quick AF, along with full-time manual focus. Moreover,
with dust- and moisture-resistant construction, this is a durable yet
sophisticated lens that meets the demands of advanced amateur
photographers and professional photographers alike.

Comments
This is a great "walk-about" lens, it has the high quality optics
found in Canon's L(uxury) range lenses, lightweight construction
and a wide focal range. If I only had one lens for my camera - this
would be it.
