I was more than a little apprehensive about buying this goal before the officers left many comments, but I'm very glad I did. I have a team of 18-55, 70-300, 60mm Macro f/2.8 and 50 cousins (all great beginner lens, of course), but I needed something that could get my camera and forget to leave the city. As a young man who enjoys small bags, is a constant internal struggle, incredible hang the camera around my neck like a "I'm on a project and not be hit" pasta, or things in a big bag with my camera lens others in a "I have no children, but could very well make it look like a diaper bag" fashion. I deviate from the advances men anyway. It's just a question of how to travel light when I do. And if I can do some things very stealable home, I will.
How do you feel?
This seems to have the same feeling that my 70-300. There is a feeling of light plastic, and as 18-55, the rubber edges and a little heavy, but heavy weight for him. I do not use this target to hit enemies, but do not feel like he left a gum ball machine as well.
What color is it?
We compared this goal for the Canon EF 50 mm f1.4 USM Standard & Medium Telephoto for Canon SLR (took identical photos in the same focal length, f-stop settings, etc.) Both goals were incredibly sweet and tips still large in edges (when taken at F8), but the colors of the 18-135 were much less washed. Certainly, we had the white balance settings blocked two shots, but only showed 18-135 red, purple, blue, green, all colors are more vivid and true.
Now if you want your family photos to look like it comes straight from a comic book with more crazy than life explosions of color, you have to look at the post-processing it. Weirdo. All I'm saying is I'm not going to have to change the color balance to cloudy with experience in prison no-color look at pictures of the family. Nothing kills the vibe of a montage of photos of the party, as shades of gray Alcatraz.
Yes, but you can get a 17-85 or 15-85 of the new, right?
Good point, man. However, the extra focal length of 85 mm after really worth it, especially when things in a street shooting or shooting semi-close to wildlife. And if the 15-85 is much more expensive and 17-85 is almost the same price, why not go to a longer length? You could make the same argument for the 18-200, but I do not think clearly compromised (and weight 21 oz, 16.1 oz vs 18-135) is worth the extra focal length. Also, get the latest version of the image stabilization with this.
But there is 17-85 USM and USM. I have all my lenses USM!
Not so fast, buddy. Truth is not USM on this goal. However, having used both the 17-85 and 18-135, the latter is so quick to autofocus. There can be no USM, but not a great difference. The engine is super fast autofocus and no hunting like my 70-300 USM tends to do. You can hear the engine, but not as high as the Canon 70-300 USM motor. Image stabilization is also great, there were plenty of images that are saved with this function, especially in low light / no flash situations.
Finally, I mention "The Digital Picture 'ISO 12233 Crops (google it can not provide a link). This proof of the crap scared me, and doing a lot of people spewing hatred on this goal. Does this look like contact lenses soft in some other goals. When they started shooting, at first I thought it was a sharpness until I realized that my brother had changed the standard ISO 1600. Thank you, brother! After it has set, it was as sharp as expected. Having made clear my own tests, I realized that the ISO 12233 cultures were not telling the whole story. I will not leave this sucker on a small tripod and shoot in black and white lines with him every day (I have more interesting matters, and are in color!) that took hundreds of pictures with this goal and not just see any picture quality or the difference in sharpness compared to my other goals. So cold, the people.
In conclusion, if you love your digital SLR that gives pictures, but I hate the lens diaper-bag/bookbag look, this is a great option. I will not make you a magic machine that comes Ansel Adams photograph, but no team will. This objective has some very nice photos when you stop worrying about the crops of 100% and start enjoying life. Shooting and be happy.
