It didn't come with my kit unfortunately.

Nice pic of the 50 though. Did you use your 18-55 to take the picture?

I'm guessing you took that with the kit lens?

oops... I realize I posted the wrong one.
I took pictures of BOTH lenses...
I posted the wrong one...
My bad!

Well ... Given that I really screwed up the name and posted the WRONG name to the lens.... how about some opinion on the picture itself... as opposed to my brain-short.... I think I used the flash a few too many times and lost a few synapses

The kit lens isn't quite as bad as everyone makes it out to be. Here's a photo taken with the kit lens (the non-IS version) and a 350d (Rebel XT):

Or how about this, wide open:

Settings for above were:
Model: Canon EOS 350D DIGITAL
Shutter Speed: 1/40 second
F Number: F/3.5
Focal Length: 18 mm
ISO Speed: 200

Sure, it's not the best lens ever but it's not exactly awful.
