who has these and do you like them, problems with them suggestions thanks so much

Well bothing being good glass u should like them. I am taking my new 70-200 f4 L back cause its not at fast as I need. Good luck with the new glass

They are the questions I would have asked before I bought them

Funny way to do things. Just got these...what do you think? Normally it goes the other way bubbie!

they are good lenses. use them a lot, and you'll like them.

some 28-135 lenses could be soft. I have never heard anything but priase for the IQ of the 70-200. Lets see some shots!

to the non smarties, i havve used these lens's before, i rented them, and i have done my research i just wanted to get a genral opinion now that i have them. thank you to the ones that actually answered. ill get some pics posted shortly thanks again

Yes, fine lenses. Still, better to ask before hand than after. I have a student coming out for private lessons next week with her new lens, a 28-135 IS. She said "As per your suggestion I got this one." Hmmm, my suggestion was to get something better than what she has now, not that particular lens. Guess I'll cross my fingers and hope she is happy with it so I don't have to tell her she maybe should have gotten something better.

well i am happy with them just wanted to get some othe r imputs thats all. thanks to all of you

i have both lens. the 28-135 used to be my walkaround lens...but 28 was not wide enough for me. and also, the two lens focal range overlap quite a bit.

so i got the sigma 17-70...and now have the focal range 17-200 covered with the 2 lens. the 17-70 has been a much better lens than the 28-135....it's smaller, lighter, wider, and IQ is better.

Hey Bill. where ya been?

I have the 28-135. It came used on an old D30 I bought at our local shop. It's a great lens overall, but mine needs to go in for some calibration as it's a little soft. Still fine for a walk around lens, which is what I want it for.

BTW, my 100-400L came back and WOW, did they fix any problems it use to have. They replaced the IS unit, cleaned and calibrated it too. Spot on now.

im all hit or miss lately canon, with the move and all i get on the internet when i can its become rather hard, with the winter here ive sorta moved away from macro and im trying to get into portrait and modeling photography now i just been real busy, my next purchase will be the 100-400 for when i go overseas. thanks for the imput every one have a great day

Happy to give you some input on the 100-400

I used my 28-135 for over a year before getting the L lenses and the 20D. It is capable and wonderful for stretch, zoom is really useful, but I found that the 24-70 was much sharper. I am also liking my primes more for the sharpness. For the money, though the 70-200 f4 is a bargain. L quality at a decent price. I love mine. If you really want to make a comparison, find a 24-70L to rent. You'll see a big difference. The reach isn't as far, but the lens is much nicer for color, IMO.

The 70-200 f/4 is just about the best value top class lens Canon makes, IMO.

The 28-135 IS is a lens I would have loved for my film camera, but for a digital, starting at 28mm is not really wide enough to my tastes. i tend to shoot either wider or longer. But it is a good enough lens, and I'm sure you will be pleased with it.
