Good range, relatively compact, fairly sharp, Image Stablization. A good package. I'm not short. I'm concentrated awesome!

I have one, and it is, as belmondo mentions, a good lens. It also slots right into your budget, and if you are in the USA, there is a $15.00 rebate available. Rick

Take a look at the B&H photo website. The 28-135IS is under $400 with the Canon $15 rebate.

Good move, I think you'll enjoy it on (at least) two fronts - the lens is a good choice, and you picked one of the best online retailers (WooHoo, another victory over the dark side - Ritz!) Rick
