Review on Canon EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 Image Stabilized USM SLR Lens for EOS Digital SLR Cameras - White Box (Bulk Packaging) by Micha Gabriel Czajko ᠌

Was recommended to me as the best option for my hobbyist transitioning from a 500 it turned out to be almost the same in terms of the issued quality, this is also a whale lens, only from more expensive cameras. Different pros: *Very inexpensive; * Good universal angles (you can shoot both landscapes and portraits); *Smart autofocus. Cons: * As has been said many times, a bit dark; * Lathers almost as well as 18-55 (kit); * Sucks a little bit of dust; *If you record a video, touch autofocus is still a mystery to me.
