Any thoughts, opinions, photos etc for this lens much appreciated please. Have tried looking on the site but not been able to find much about it. It is the non APO one that I am interested in. Please forgive me if this has already been covered somewhere and Ihave missed it.

Many thanks:)

I purchased one of these 2 years ago and didnt get on very well with it...I thought it was too soft at the top end...however I have recently tried it again (after learning more about my cameras manual settings) and to be honest it isnt that bad after all. Ok so its not "L" quality but for the price its ok. If you can afford the little extra and can loose 50mm then I would rather go for the Canon 55 - 250mm IS lens (around £200)

From what I've seen, pop for the APO version if you can (it's going for about $190 on B&H). It is said to be much better than the non-APO.
