Review on Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM UD Lens: High-Quality Standard Zoom for Canon DSLR Cameras by Ada Lech (Ada Lech) ᠌

Very happy with the purchase. Compared with the Elks and did not find a fundamental difference in the pictures. An excellent lens for the price. Pros below: The range of focal lengths is very convenient. I use it as a universal travel zoom. Sufficiently sharp throughout the frame in almost the entire range of focal lengths. Fast precise focus. After Canon 50 1.8 it's just a fairy tale. There is enough light. Well, the truth is enough, although I did not believe it. Some cons: Relatively heavy. Filter diameter 72 mm - too much. On the carcass of the 550D, it turns out to be cumbersome, and outweighs forward.
