Curious to your thoughts about this.

Last weekend i received my new 15-85mm lens, as an upgrade for the 18-55 kit lens.
I made a few shots with it so far, and i'm curious to know what you think of it

Nice shots! I really like the 2nd pic.

I like my 15-85mm but I haven't noticed a huge difference in quality over the 18-55mm. The range and USM motor make this lens worth the money.

I think 1/25 was too slow a shutter speed in the first photo, and as a result it looks shaken. Not sure if it was because of the subject was moving or whether it's because you're at 85mm, but other than that I think it's a great shot. I like how he's completely to the right.

The second photo is really nice, although the vignetting is a bit too extreme to my taste, it almost darkens the guitar. Maybe dodge the upper part of the guitar to get it to "pop" out more?

**LOL** at the guys expression in the first picture
