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 Banas ᠌

Excellent staffer. On the crop, it is indistinguishable in picture quality from 24-105 F4 L. It remains to buy 17-55 F2.8 for indoors and that's it. And then save money and switch to full frame ;-) Different pros: Sharpness, color reproduction, well reveals 18 megapixel crop sensor (550D), universal FR, decent width, very fast USM, effective stub, comfortable in the hand, price-quality ratio, and in the direction of quality. For example, the trunk itself does not fall out =) and in general the workmanship is almost L, with the only difference being that there is no dust and moisture protection. Has cons: There are no serious ones. so. little things. Shirik fills up the corners a little, although the barrel is practically absent. When using a standard flash on a FR up to 50, a hood climbs into the frame. To some, the aperture ratio will seem small, although this is very subjective. Lens 72 mm, requires accuracy, a protective filter is desirable. On the 550D, when hanging on the neck, it weighs a little forward =) although it weighs about the same. When shooting, everything is fine.
