Hello,
Does anyone have any input on the quality of the new efs 18-135mm IS lens which comes on the 7d -versus- the ef 28-135mm IS usm lens?

I have the later but would consider selling it to get the efs 18-135 if the quality is equal. I think the 28-135 is noted having one aspheric element. It also is 72mm versus the 67mm on the efs lens. The efs 18-135mm lens uses one extension tube versus the double extension tube on ef 28-135mm.

Anyhow, is the quality of the newer lens equal to or better than the quality of the ef 28-135mm lens?

Thanks
